I will remember that children play sport for their enjoyment. They
are not playing to entertain me. |
2 |
I will not have unrealistic expectations. I will remember
that child athletes are not miniature professionals and cannot be judged
by professional standards. |
3 |
I will respect the officials' decisions and I will encourage
participants to do the same. |
4 |
I will never ridicule an athlete for making a mistake during a
competition. I will give positive comments that motivate and encourage
continued effort. |
5 |
I will condemn the use of violence in any form and will express my
disapproval in an appropriate manner to coaches and league officials. |
6 |
I will show respect for my team's opponents, because without them
there would be no game. |
7. |
I will not use bad language, nor will I harass athletes, coaches,
officials or other spectators. |
