CYO Coach’s Pledge Upon my honor as a CYO Coach, I pledge myself to the following: To guide each player to be a better Christian and a better citizen. To be ethical and sportsmanshiplike in my coaching conduct towards all athletes, officials, spectators and coaches. To motivate each athlete to compete according to the rules at all times. To teach each athlete, especially through my own examples, to be humble and generous in victory and proud and courteous in defeat.
