Cayenne, be very careful about trying to use a fill in the blank kind of form for a noncompete agreement. Requirements will vary from state to state. Get an attorney if you feel you really need a contract.

It sounds good to have, but as Matt said practically unenforcable. Just put the fear of GOD into them and there should be no problem.

Non compete's for regular employee's are extremely hard to enforce. Each state has different laws pretaining to how much one can restrict another. Then, if they do breach the agreement, YOU have to take on the legal fight which can get costly. Even then, if you win, what can you get? Those battles are hard fought and time consuming. They only make some sense in the big corporate world.
