Parent/Guardian Code of Conduct
Youth soccer is a game were the children participate and have fun. Unfortunately, inappropriate behavior among spectators is becoming more prevalent. A unique feature of soccer is that the coaches are responsible for the behavior of his/her team's spectators. Therefore, in an attempt to make the coaches job easier, the following is expected of all parents/guardians and other spectators.
1. Treat the players, coaches, and spectators with respect, both your team and the opposing team.
2. Treat the referees with respect. The Laws of Soccer prohibit dissent of any type, by word or action.
3. Encourage your team (cheer) in a positive manner. Negative comments towards any player, coach, referee, or spectator will not be tolerated.
4. Do not try to coach your child during a game. That is the Coaches job.
5. I understand that it is the coach's decision as to how much playing time a player will receive, and to what positions a player will be assigned to play.
6. If I must talk to the coach about an apparent problem, I will do so in a quiet manner, without any children present, and at an appropriate time
7. I understand that I may be asked to leave the premises if I violate this Code of Conduct and I will comply.
8. I understand that if I persist in violating this Code of Conduct, I will be banned from future games.
9. I understand that it is my responsibility to inform any other relatives or guests attending games that this Code of Conduct applies to all spectators.
