3 Quoting “The Des Moine’s youth baseball league adopted a zero tolerance policy toward obnoxious adults; cuss or brawl and the kid leaves the team” (Lord, 2000, p.52). SOURCE: LORD 2000 Alarmed by the escalating epidemic of aggression, thousands of communities are embracing measures to quash the "win at all costs" mind-set and restore a sense of recreation to childhood's fields of dreams. West Des Moines's youth baseball league recently adopted a zero- tolerance policy toward obnoxious adults; cuss or brawl, and the kid leaves the team.

4 Paraphrasing In other areas of the United States, this violent behavior between both parents and coaches has necessitated parental codes of conduct which requires parents to either view a video on sideline manners or attend a class as well as sign a code of behavior contract before their child can play the sport (Lord, 2000) The original source Alarmed by the escalating epidemic of aggression, thousands of communities are embracing measures to quash the "win at all costs" mind-set and restore a sense of recreation to childhood's fields of dreams. West Des Moines's youth baseball league recently adopted a zero-tolerance policy toward obnoxious adults; cuss or brawl, and the kid leaves the team. "We're going to stand tall on this," vows league president Mike Linn, who hopes to stave off violence before it occurs with other measures, such as giving every young player a turn at bat and running coaching clinics. Albuquerque fines abusive spectators $5, while soccer leagues nationwide now observe "Silent Saturdays"--sometimes with duct tape or lollipops to muzzle sideline shouters. In Florida, the Jupiter- Tequesta Athletic Association is really playing hardball: It just became the first in the nation to require that parents attend an ethics class and sign a code of conduct if they want their kids to play.
