Spectators
A. Spectators, both student and adult, must demonstrate courtesy and good sportsmanship by positive cheers of encouragement for their team, not against the opposing team. This is evidenced by the absence of booing and vulgarities. Spectators must also show proper acceptance of officials’ judgment.

Sportsmanship Awards
Every ASAA Provincial Championship will receive 5 sportsmanship pins to distribute to individuals during the event. There will also be a team Sportsmanship award presented. The Sportsmanship committee (Murray Smith, Bryan Klaus, Brad Whittingham) will be responsible for selecting recipients of the ASAA’s sportsmanship pins and the team award.

Sportsmanship is vitally important and highly valued by the ASAA. A Sportsmanship plaque will be awarded to the team that displays appropriate conduct & sportsmanship both individually and at a team level throughout the Championship. Pins will be handed out throughout the Championship to individuals & spectators who display sportsmanship in their words & actions. The sportsmanship committee will be deciding who receives these awards.
