The managers are not child minders they are there to develop football skills and for the younger age groups you should remain with your child at all times during training and matches.

Parents should:-
  1. Never force a child to play football; they should want to play and enjoy it.
  2. Offer to help the club in any way you can. The club is run by volunteers and needs parents to actively help and support it
  3. Read and understand the club’s procedures on child protection and other codes of conduct
  4. Praise effort and performance more than results
  5. Praise good behaviour quickly to show adults value it.
  6. Do not argue with the officials; they are volunteers as well!
  7. Do not coach from the sidelines or shout at a player that makes a mistake.
  8. Stay off the pitch during matches.
  9. Show the players you enjoy watching the game no matter what the result.
  10. Respect other players by giving the club good notice if you are unable to attend a game.
  11. Talk to your child’s manager if you have concerns and questions.
