Welcome Coaches and Captains!
We are super excited about this new selection process for the ASAA Sportsmanship Banner. We hope that you, as a stakeholder in this event, will be a part of this process to ensure that we are recognizing and selecting the best representatives for our SET THE BAR sportsmanship banner.
You have been provided with a rubric that has enough space to evaluate all teams in the competition. We recognize that you may not compete against every team. But we also know that you see and hear a lot during gameplay and during transition times before and after games in the locker room. Please only evaluate those teams that you feel you have seen enough to evaluate. You might even only evaluate one area of a team that you don’t get to compete against and that is fine, maybe all you do is add a note in the “other” column because you witness something that should be noted by the committee when making their selection!
We hope Coaches and Captains will work together to complete the form as the value in those discussions and sharing input from different perspectives will help to get a whole perspective.
Our suggestion: keep the rubric handy! After you compete against a team or watch another set of teams play, just quickly fill it out as you go and do a quick check to make sure nothing has changed in your evaluation before submitting it to the hosts before you leave town! This isn’t meant to be a huge amount of work so if you keep it on hand to fill out as you go, the evaluations will be right there in your head while you make them and you shouldn’t have to think too hard to remember :-)
Please fill in this form for every team you feel like you can accurately evaluate based on your own experience or observations throughout the provincial event. You do not need to evaluate every team.
5 Point Rubric Definition:
5 - Exceptional - above and beyond
4 - Above average
3 - Average level - status quo, doing what they are supposed to be doing, what is expected, baseline
**this is where most teams should be as a starting point
2 - Below Average - with some questionable actions or behaviors
1 - Bare Minimum - multiple questionable actions or behaviors
Evidence that might be included in the notes sections: positive/negative behavior of the fans, positive/negative behavior of athletes and/or adults associated (please don’t give specific names just a general overview of the team), noticeable acts that are seen throughout the event both on and off the court, how officials were treated.
Sportsmanship Pin Award: Sportsmanship pins may be given to individuals who exhibit outstanding displays of integrity, fair play and good sportsmanship. Sportsmanship pins may be given to players, coaches, parents and spectators.
