Keep a sound soul, a clean mind, and a healthy body

2. We will support our teammates and be team players.
3. We will recognize who and what we are representing.
4. We will show no bias, no prejudice, or preferential treatment on or off the field.
5. We will take responsibility for our own behavior.
