Rules for Parents to follow
#1. We all know your daughter is a good player or she wouldn't be on the team.
#2. If you must speak badly about another player or the coaches don't do it in front of your daughter.
#3. It takes 9 to play, you win together and lose together. Your daughter can't play by herself.
#4. If you are going to constantly contradict her coaches instruction please form your own team.
#5. Just because she plays (fill in position) on her in house team doesn't mean she will play it on the travel team.
#6. Playing time is earned through hard work, it is not a right because you paid $XXX to be on this team.
#7. If you have a problem speak to the coaches directly, don't whine and cry in the bleachers.
#8. Make the most of your experience, kids will grow up quick, memories last forever.
#9. Teach your daughter's to compete with class, they will follow your example.
#10. When the tourney is over let it be over. Don't make your daughter replay every minute of the weekend on the ride home!
#11. When you commit to the team, commit to the team. Coaches and teammates count on your daughter to be at practices and games. Make sure she is there, or let the coach know in advance if she has to miss so plans can be made to replace her temporarily.
#12. If you feel that your daughter is the only player on the team working hard - get a clue, get real and get another team.
#13. When your daughter fields an easily playable ball, don't carry on like she single handedly made a triple play. She simply did her job.
#14. When your daughter misses an easily playable ball, don't blame every other girl on the field, the coach, or make excuses (that was so&so's/if the coach hadn't moved her over 1 step she would have had that one, or her ankle, knee, little toe hurts). She's a kid and she made a mistake - they will all do it - she's no different.
#15. High maintenance parents need not apply. We don’t need you.
Why is it so hard for parents to get the concept of TEAM , What college coach wants individuals or nagging parents or a prima-donna?????
