Parent's Role & Code of Conduct
Parents play a significant role in the experience of their child and all players on the field. Parents are expected to join us in setting a positive example for our players. We encourage all parents to actively support/cheer on our players (and coaches) with the following expectations:
(i) Remember children play for their enjoyment, not yours.
(ii) Encourage your child to play by the rules of the game.
(iii) Show your appreciation of volunteer coaches.
(iv) Show respect towards the officials and understand that at this level everyone is learning.
(v) Never ridicule or yell at any child for making a mistake or losing a game.
(vi) Turn defeat into victory by emphasizing the value of honest effort, skill improvement and fair play.
(vii) As spectators, applaud all good plays, both for your team and your opponents.
(viii) Actions speak louder than words. Make sure your behavior sets a good example.
(ix) Support all efforts to remove violence from children’s sport.
(x) Referee abuse is not an acceptable behavior.
(xi) Parents are responsible for the delivery and pick-up of their children.
