The Rapid City Youth Soccer League (RCYSL) Code of Conduct

player, referee, administrator, or in any way associated with
the rapid city youth soccer league. The intent of this code is

time and place removed from league sanctioned events, shall
not be exempt from this Code of Conduct. Any violation of this
code will cause the person to be ineligible to coach, play,
referee or perform the function that the person has been
performing until such time that the case has been
investigated, reviewed and a ruling made by the RCYSL Board of
Directors. Guidelines set forth by the USYSA will be used in
the review process, with notification of the ruling to be sent
to the state association.
