It is the belief that good sportsmanship on the part of spectators at high school athletic contests is as important as good sportsmanship on the part of the players. The following guidelines for spectator conduct are expected as a means of continuing and strengthening the ties that exist between competing schools. Spectators are encouraged to be actively involved in positive behaviors that promote enthusiastic support for our interscholastic teams. Spectators should cheer for our teams rather than against others. Discourteous or unsportsmanlike behaviors are unacceptable. No spectator should be involved in any of the following actions:

• "No one shall throw any object on to the playing surface. This action is equally dangerous to Shen athletes, other participants and spectators.
• "No one shall use unacceptable language when cheering or engage in any cheer that is demeaningto a team or an individual (players, coaches, referees, or other spectators)
• "No sound producing devices shall be used. This includes horns of any type, whistles, drums, etc.
