WHATS MY ROLE AS A PARENT
Your role is support your child’s sports experience as much as
possible. You can do this by doing the following: Attend all practices
and games with your child and be attentive and observant, put the
cell phones and tablets away. Kids grow up fast, so enjoy every
moment of it. Always be positive, praise and recognize effort. Never
yell out commands or discipline your child from the sidelines. Get
involved and help support your child’s team by coordinating a snack
schedule and get to know other parents. This is how kids learn how
to have healthy community relationships.
WHEN BRINGING SNACKS/DRINKS
When bringing snacks, please avoid all items made with or around
peanuts and other tree nuts. Communicate with Y staff and parents
of any allergies your child may have. Please avoid any unhealthy
snack/ drink choices at all cost.
