By supporting your Child, what can children who play in the League expect from adults?

 CHILDREN CAN EXPECT ADULTS NOT TO:

• Attempt to ‘coach’ or ‘manipulate’ the players while they are playing

•  Shout, swear, become violent or use sarcasm

• Ignore Children who need help

• Attempt to ‘Referee’ the game by appealing for free kicks, etc.

• Assess players by their incompetence.

• Abuse or argue with the Referee or assistant Referees.

 BUT CHILDREN CAN EXPECT ADULTS TO:

• Praise effort and performance more than results

• Look for aspects to praise in players who might not otherwise get attention

• Give them clear examples of excellent behaviour

• Show consistency

• Assess players with regard to their skills and attitudes

• Praise good behaviour quickly to show adults value it

• Help, encourage and support

• Learn the Laws of Association Football and East Berks Youth Football League Rules

REMEMBER: CHILDREN DO NOT MEAN TO MAKE MISTAKES
