It is a privilege, not a right, to be a member of an Association team. Parents and players who sign this contract further agree that they will cooperate with the Board of Directors at all times with respect to the enforcement of this Contract and with any disciplinary proceedings instituted by the Board of Directors. Parents and players further agree the notice of any hearing regarding disciplinary proceedings requires the appearance of the player and at least one parent or guardian, and proper notice of any such hearing may be given by sending notice to the last, known address of the player as recorded in the most current records of the Association. It is the responsibility of each parent and player to ensure that the Association is notified of any change of address within 5 days of any such change. Compliance with this contract is a voluntary choice of the coach, player and the player's parents.
