• Use a controlled substance (drugs), tobacco products,or drink alcoholic beverages. It is the firm commitment of AU*Capital SC to take an active role in the prevention of drug and alcohol abuse. Our policy is no drugs, no alcohol, and no destructive behavior. We will involve ourselves with the player and parents any time that a situation has an impact on our Club or its members. It is important that we be able to trust players to obey Club rules, especially due to the responsibilities that we assume when we travel. Violation of this policy may be the basis for suspension or dismissal from the team, or for requiring that a player return home early from an out-of-town tournament, at the parent's expense.
• Forget that I represent AU*Capital SC!!!
