As a BYSO parent, I will…
Provide positive support, care and encouragement for my child, other players, spectators, officials, and administrators by following the Parent’s Code of Ethics and strive to make the experience positive and enjoyable for all.
Lead by example in demonstrating fair play, good sportsmanship, maintaining integrity with our sport and being a good role model.
Place the emotional and physical well-being of my child and the other players ahead of any personal desire to win.
Insist that my child practice and play in a safe and healthy environment.
Demand a drug-free, alcohol-free and tobacco-free sporting environment for my child and agree to assist by refraining from the use at all soccer events.
Help my child enjoy the soccer experience by assisting in coaching, being a respectful and responsible spectator, supporting the coaches and officials working with my child and assisting wherever/whenever possible.
Require my child to treat other players, coaches, officials and spectators with respect regardless of race, sex, ability or age.
Require that my child’s coach be trained in the responsibilities of being a youth soccer coach, that they continue with their training education and have agreed to and abide by the Coach’s Code of Ethics.
Learn about soccer and what is appropriate for the age group in which my child plays.
Remember that the game is for the children and not for the adults. I will remember that we are here to help the children have fun and learn. I will help the other spectators and coaches remember this as well.
