The role of each parent is extremely important for all young athletes. We encourage parents, family and friends to attend games applauding the player’s good plays. There is to be no coaching by parents from the sidelines during games or trainings. We ask parents to bring their positive attitudes to all games and to support the team and coaches. Negative comments towards refs or coaches may result in you being asked to leave the game. “Sideline coaching” is unacceptable.
We expect parents to be positive reinforcements for their athletes, helping them build confidence and nurture their love of the game. We do not condone parents criticizing players, teams or coaches in any way. We strive to foster the best environment for your athlete to thrive. We help them push their boundaries, unleash their potential and develop their skills in a positive environment. We do NOT expect perfection and neither should parents. We DO expect both athletes and parents to display good character and sportsmanship.
In line with these expectations, we ask at trainings for parents to stay a fair distance away from the fields. We ask that coaches are not to be approached by parents at trainings or games either before or afterwards concerning their player. This is a time for both the coaches and players to be focused on the task at hand.
We thank you for your support and cooperation, as it is vital for your player’s positive soccer experience and for the success of our club.
