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. With this agreement, the coaching and management staff is attempting to develop a uniform set of standards for Rapids players and parents. We deem the implementation of these standards as important in order for our team to standout as a well-organized team that not only has fun but also takes what we do with a professional attitude. Players are not to practice with game shorts in order to extend the life of the shorts.
