Parents

Code of Conduct

  • Do not criticize the opponents, their parents, coaches or the referee.

  • Help your child keep her priorities correct. She needs to maintain a focus on schoolwork, relationships, and other things in life besides soccer.

  • Monitor eating and sleeping habits. Be sure that your child is eating the correct foods. Players should be in bed at a reasonable hour on the night before a game and early enough on other nights to ensure that adequate rest is being taken.

  • Encourage your child to speak with the coach. If your child is having difficulties in training or games, or can’t attend training etc. encourage him to speak directly to the coaches. This “responsibility taking” is a big part of becoming a mature person. By handling off the field tasks, your child is claiming ownership of all aspects of the game.
