SILENT SATURDAY

SHHHH !!

“QUIET PLEASE”

This has been tried in this league and other leagues and it was noted that the kids loved it and so did the Ref’s.

On “ SILENT SATURDAY “the coaches and parents should be silent on the side lines. Sometimes as a coach and as a parent we can become over enthusiastic and yell out constant instructions like, “Pass, Shoot, Clear the ball, Center”. With the sidelines being quiet, this will let the kids make their own decisions on the field, and they will be able to talk to each other. The children will decide who will take the corner kick, goal kick, or throw in. The children will be able to hear each other talk on the field with comments like “Pass, Center, Go wide.”

So, lets sit back, suck on a lollipop, save our vocal chords, and enjoy the game.
