Parents/Guardians:
- Remember that children participate in sports for their own enjoyment, not yours.
- Encourage children to participate, do not force them.
- Focus on your child's efforts and performance rather than whether they win or lose.
- Encourage children to play according to the rules and to settle disagreements without resorting to hostility or violence.
- Never ridicule or yell at a child for making a mistake or losing a game/competition.
- Remember that children learn by best example. Appreciate good performance and skillful plays by all participants.
- Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from sporting activities.
- Respect officials' decisions and teach children to do likewise.
- Respect the Clubs Committee members & volunteers and treat them with respect, without them your child could not participate.
- Show appreciation for volunteer coaches, officials, and administrators. Without them, your child could not participate.
