USYSA Parent's Code of Conduct
- Children have more need of example than criticism.
- Attempt to relieve the pressure of competition, not increase it. A child is easily affected by outside influences.
- Be supportive of the coach. The coach is a volunteer giving of personal time and money to provide a recreational activity for your child.
- The opponents are necessary friends. Without them your child could not participate.
- Applaud good plays by our team and by members of the opposing team.
- Do Not openly question an official's judgment and honesty. Officials are symbols of fair play, integrity and sportsmanship.
- Accept the results of each game. Encourage your child to be gracious in victory, and to turn defeat into victory by working towards improvement.
