transportation for their son or daughter to get to all practices and matches.
Most of these have been scheduled locally. Carpooling is strongly encouraged.

Course in Escondido.
12. Any displays of anger/aggression horseplay or goofing
off at practices or during any match will not be tolerated: (a) CIF rules
forbid foul language. If a player swears, he could be penalized, his score
could be forfeited, or the entire match could be forfeited depending on
the decision of the coaches from both schools. His parents will be notified.
If this behavior persists, a meeting will be held with the coach, the
boy and his parents to discuss the feasibility of the boy remaining on
the team. (b) No acts of aggression will be tolerated, i.e. no bending
or throwing any club, no throwing golf balls into the water, etc. No horseplay
or goofing off will be tolerated. Any of these types of acts will require
the player to forfeit his score. If a player is guilty of any act of anger/aggression,
he will be warned once that this behavior will not be tolerated again
and his parents will be notified. If the behavior reoccurs, the player
will be dropped from the team.
