Parent's Code

Where does a child learn to be a ‘good sport’?  By the time a child joins a centre, a sense of sportsmanship (or
lack thereof) is already well established.


 Do not force an unwilling child to participate in sports.

Remember children are involved in organised sports for their enjoyment, not yours.

Encourage your child to always play by the rules.

Teach your child that honest effort is as important as victory so that the result of each competition is accepted without undue
disappointment.

Turn defeat into victory by helping your child work towards being a good sport and improving techniques.

Remember that children work best by example.  Applaud good performances by your centre athletes and by athletes
of opposing centres.

Do not publicly question officials’ judgement, and never their honesty.

Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from children’s sporting activities.

Recognise the value and importance of volunteer coaches.  They give of their time and resources to produce recreational activities for your child.
