Things for coaches, parents and spectators

Things for coaches, parents and spectators to keep in mind while children are playing sports on our courts, and fields…

This is a GAME being played by CHILDREN

    • If they win or lose every game of the season, it will not impact what college they attend or their future income potential
    • Of the hundreds of thousands of children who have ever played youth sports in Weirton, very few have gone on to play professionally. It is highly unlikely that any college recruiters or professional scouts are watching these games; so, let's keep it all about having fun and being pressure-free.
    • Referees umpires and officials are human and make mistakes, just like players, coaches and you. No one shouts at you in front of other people when you make a mistake, so please don’t yell at them. We do not have video replay; so, we will go with their calls.
