Parents/Players responsibilities
1. Players who cannot make a scheduled soccer event are required to call Coach Paul directly or leave a message on his answering machine. The boys are at an age that they should be encouraged to make decisions and understand their decisions if they cannot make an event. If I do not personally hear from a player, it will be considered an unexcused absence and playing time will be affected.
Note: Regards to schedules. Games and tournaments schedules are distribute as soon as I receive them, usually well in advance of the scheduled date. Canceling less than a week before an event is not fair to your teammates or the coaching staff. If this occurs, playing time will be affected.
2. Drop players off on time for games and practices. Let coaches know if your player will be late or absent.
3. Feel free to support and cheer players during a game.
4. Allow players and coaches the freedom to train without your constant supervision.
5. If you have a concern to discuss with the coach, allow yourself a twenty-four hour "cooling off" period, express your concern, and then give the coach enough time to respond.
The following is unacceptable behavior:
a) Being overly zealous on the sidelines during games
b) Berating or directing degrading remarks at anyone (players, parents or officials)
c) Using foul language
d) Coaching from the sidelines.
Players’ responsibility
· Thank your parents for giving you the opportunity to play.
· Train regularly. Be on time. Work hard.
· Take care of your uniform and equipment.
· Dress for the proper weather conditions: Bring a hat, gloves, extra under-armour if necessary. You can always take it off if it gets too hot or in your way.
· Bring plenty of water or proper refreshment.
· Exhibit good sportsmanship.
· Ask questions if you don't understand something.
· Warm up in advance in order to maximize coaching time on the field. This is especially important in the winter, when indoor training time is short.
· Try to watch good soccer on television.
· Remember that your behavior reflects on you, your family, your coach, your team and the Club.
· Do your best in school: education is more important than soccer. REMEMBER: ‘A smart student is a smart athlete.’
