Criticism of a skater's performance by casual comments in the stands, is inconsiderate and unproductive. Public criticism of one's own skater is unseemly and confidence breaking for the skater. Such criticism is often coupled with parental coaching from the stands. This is generally counter-productive to the professional teaching and training being paid for by the parent. Parents should not attempt to discipline any skater on the ice.
Most skaters are children who make mistakes, act up or get in the way.
The coaches and the Executive are responsible for enforcing the rules. Report any significant problems to the Executive and let them resolve it. When parents become unnecessarily involved, animosities may be built that tend to damage the rapport within the Club and the friendly relationships between the skaters. Parents are responsible for transporting the skaters to the arena and home.
