Spectator Code of Conduct

Teams shall be supported with enthusiasm and dedication, for strong spectator support is a vital part of the high school competition experience. We expect good sportsmanship from players and coaches, and they have a right to expect the same from spectators and fans. Therefore, we urge students, alumni, and friends to cheer their teams to victory while upholding these same ideals that our school has nurtured during the long history of Travelers Rest High School. Our spectators should be courteous, careful in choice of expression, and mannerly to all others. The scoreboard will reflect the quality of the teams in competition. The kind of support given by the spectators will showcase the character of our school's fans.

Student Requirements for Participation

It is an honor and privilege to participate on any athletic team at Travelers Rest High School. The Student Handbook contains detailed information for all prospective and active student-athletes and parents on the academic requirements, attendance policies and other requirements as set forth by the State of South Carolina and the South Carolina High School League (the governing agency for high school athletics in the state), and the policies governing student-athletes on the local level. Students and parents should make themselves familiar with that information. Should one desire, complete access to the full Handbook of rules of the SCHSL and a wealth of other information (including playoff brackets) can be viewed at www.schsl.org.
