Park Orchards North Ringwood ParishHi All Sharks,
Parent and Player Behaviour!
I have been personally contacted by the YJFL and asked to heavily promote to our players and parents expectations around behaviour. The league have advised me that the most represented party from report at the tribunal this Season 2015 has been PARENTS!
I accept that we are all human and prone to react, but it is those that react appropriately that set the mantle of behaviour we expect of our Sharks family. Unfortunately I have personally witnessed a number of inappropriate acts over the past few weeks involving parents – PLEASE STOP!
This is football, it’s a competitive contact sports so on occasions things will happen on the football field that may raise your ire. If you see something on the field you believe to be inappropriate, firstly leave it with the Umpires to deal with, and if they miss it bring it up with your Coaches and Team officials to deal with. If at the end of the game you are still NOT happy, then speak to me and I will deal with it through the appropriate channels.
The Sharks have a great name in the league and we are known for being well behaved! So, before you react I ask you to STOP and think about the consequences of your actions for you, your child, and the club. Thanks for your understanding and supporting your children having FUN! This is about common sense, so if you have any questions give me a call.
