Expected Behaviour (by Parents):

Parent's comments and actions carry a great deal of weight with our kid's even if we don't realize it. The attitude and actions shown by parents at games towards their child, the opposing team, the officials and the coaches can influence a child's values and behaviours in all sports. Criticism of their play, disrespect for the officials and the opponents by parents can bring stresses to a game that is suppose to be fun.  I hope you will keep these few things in mind when you are at our games and practices:

• “Positive encouragement is good; negative comments are bad.”

• “Cheering is good, but do not yell directions to your child or anyone else’s child during the game.” It can be distracting & what you tell them may be different from what the coaches are saying. If you would like to be an assistant coach, please call us, We would love your help!”

• “Be careful not to say anything that might be taken the wrong way or hurt someone’s feelings. Remember: this is for fun & these are children.”

• “Be a good role model & a good sport”.

• “Do not question the referee's judgment or honesty.” Most are doing their best and like all of us they make mistakes once in a while.

• “If you have a concern or question for the coaches about the practice, the game or something that has happened please feel free to approach us before or after the game or practice. We are volunteers and don’t always see the things that parents do from the sidelines during the games or practices.”

• Accept the results of the game.” Encourage your child to be gracious when they win and when they lose use it as an opportunity to work towards bettering their skills for the next game or practice.
