bucfan64 307 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Sorry, you can't do that! Face Paint is O.K. providing it is put on BEFORE you enter the arena! ( Check Below) No body paint No "warm up the busses" chants Check this out: Sportsmanship Guidelines for VHSL State Events The following guidelines are provided to the administration, teams, cheer squads, students and spectators of VHSL member schools. The following will not be tolerated! Your student body will be encouraged to sit in the end zone/seating area nearest your team’s bench. Students in this area may stand throughout the game if they so desire. They must remain in the bleachers and may not come down onto the floor level. EXAMPLES OF UNSPORTSMANLIKE BEHAVIOR The following list is by no means “all inclusive,†but is provided to draw attention to behaviors often witnessed at athletic contests. Please review this list with your student body so that they will know what is not acceptable. Turning your back or pretending to read a newspaper during player introductions – this is disrespectful. Not standing attentively or shouting “oh†during the National Anthem – this is disrespectful. Booing anyone – this is disrespectful Taunting or baiting anyone – this is disrespectful Singling out an opponent and yelling personal remarks – this is disrespectful Mooing, barking, or making other inappropriate gestures or sounds toward anyone – this is disrespectful Chanting such things as “over-rated,†or “you, you, you†(after a foul), “warm-up the bus,†etc. – these things are disrespectful. Using profanity toward anyone – this is disrespectful Using racial, ethnic or other slurs – this is disrespectful Throwing things onto the court or toward others – this is disrespectful and dangerous The behaviors above must be addressed by school administrators if/when they occur. Failure to do so is a violation of The League’s Sportsmanship Rule. Remember, good sportsmanship is all about respect. Win with humility; lose with grace; do both with dignity. PLEASE REMIND YOUR STUDENTS AND OTHER SPECTATORS OF THE FOLLOWING: Artificial noisemakers are not permitted at indoor events – this includes bells, whistles, thunder sticks, clappers, megaphones (except cheerleaders), horns, etc. Artificial noisemakers are prohibited by NFHS Rules. Body paint is not permitted. Face painting is acceptable provided that it has been done prior to entering the stadium/arena. No containers/products for face painting will be permitted to be bought into the stadium/arena. Bare chests are not permitted. No one will be permitted on the court/field at the end of the game. Outside food and/or beverages may not be brought into stadium/arena. Individuals who are disruptive, disrespectful, or who fail to comply with stadium/arena and/or VHSL procedures will be escorted from the facility. and so on..................

Those rules and regulations go almost hand in hand with the ones in WV... I think the WVSSAC requires that an administrator stand by their respective student sections and personally monitor what is being said and done by each student.

VivaFutbol 10 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Whats the point of a student section then? We have some cheers to take the place....but most of the regulars (airball; foul, foul, foul on you...you; ohhhhhh sit down; start the bus; ect) have been taken away from the section. And the leaders were actually given a week of social probation for starting an airball chant. Anyway Final 4....GDUB Soldiers are going all out on cheers.

six4three 10 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 they have had some riots and brawls at the arena in the past few years, so they are really trying to crack down. the triple a schools go nuts and everybody else has to pay. they won't let you in the arena with face paint on, so don't try it.

pigskincleat 13 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 If the new panther Tom Crigger goes, they may want him to paint his face, before he enters the gym! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmspartan 10 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Don't quote me on this but I believe you have to put the paint on after you enter the arena. When we played Bassett in the semifinals before beating RE Lee for the championship, the Bassett fans went into the team's locker rooms to don their paint and totally trashed the place. I actually had a VHSL official tell me that he thought the students were TOO CHILDISH in their behavior(???) - yelling at the other team - especially after the game when the 'Dogs were holding up the trophy and congratulating each other. I think these adults have forgotten how THEY acted when they were teens!!!! And you'd better be careful what you paint on your face! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] I believe its the opposite...they do remember how they acted when they were teens. They were the nerdy geeks who sat at home doing homework on Friday and Saturday nights...jealous of all the other kids who were out having a good time! Now they are getting their revenge by running, or should I say "ruining", things and not allowing fans to have fun... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
