  • Do not harass or criticize the referee, the other team, or other players.
  • Don’t compare the skill, courage, or attitudes of your children with other members of the team.

  • Get to know the coach so that you can understand his/her philosophy, attitudes, ethics, and leadership style.
  • Support the coaches with the things they are trying to accomplish.
  • Parents have a responsibility to provide feedback via an annual survey.
