Rule No.1 Non-interference in the process of training sessions, games and tournaments.

  • Parents are obliged to observe and maintain public policy and generally accepted norms of behavior.
  • It is forbidden to come to training sessions, games and tournaments in a state of intoxication, to bring and drink alcoholic beverages.
  • At training sessions, as well as during games and tournaments, parents should not act as mentors to their child. There is only one mentor and teacher, and that is the coach. Do not interfere with work of the coach.
  • Shouting, scolding and prompting a child during training sessions, games and tournaments is strictly prohibited. Parents raise their kids at home.
  • A coach carries out the training process, counting on the fact that the kids themselves will gradually learn to control their behavior.
  • Avoid criticizing your kid for a mistake, because mistakes are part of learning. Respect the territory of the football field and refrain from shouting along the touchlines and football gates.
  • Show respect to match officials and take their respective official decisions without protest.

Rule No. 2 Parents’ non-interference in the decisions made by the coach.

  • The coach has the right to decide where, at what time and in which group the student will train. These decisions are supported by preparedness (age and skills are taken into account), the behavior and desire of the student to play football. The coach can explain his conclusions in a personal conversation with the parents. The conversation must take place in the correct form.
  • During friendly and official games, do not distract your kid from the stands by screaming. If you did sports in the past, it does not allow you to be a coach.
  • Refrain from criticizing coaches, referees or opponents during the game and in the presence of your child or other children. Constructive criticism, when you feel the need for it, should be privately directed to your coach.
  • Parents can make a claim only for violations by the coach of the norms of conduct and the Charter of the Club. The main composition of the team and the construction of the training process are purely professional moments, and only the coach makes all decisions on these issues.

Rule No. 3 Emotion control and parents’ reaction to the coach’s decisions.

  • If the coach decides to suspend sessions with a particular student, parents have the right to find out the reasons for such a decision. They can also receive from the coach all the information about their child and recommendations for his further physical development (pool, gymnastics, etc.).
  • The conversation with the coach takes place in a calm manner, and the coach’s decisions must be taken appropriately.
  • In the future, the participation of the child in the training sessions can be resumed.
  • Parents have the right to suspend their kid’s training (e.g. to find a use for his skills in another sport), which should be notified to the coach in advance.
  • Rule No. 4 Emotion control and parents’ behavior at the place of training sessions, games and tournaments.
  • Parents must comply with all the rules and requirements established by the management of the Club where the students are engaged.
  • Disputes, conflicts, incorrect and disrespectful attitude of parents towards other students, coaching staff of the Club, service personnel, persons responsible for maintaining order, employees and management of the Club are excluded.
  • Criticism, wishes and disagreement with anything must be brought to the coach first of all.

Rule No. 5 Preparing a player for training sessions and games

  • Children must be ready for training, games and tournaments morally and physically. They must sleep and be full (food is taken at least two hours before the start of a training session or game).
  • Children should look neat. Training and playing attire should be clean and ironed.
  • The admission of children to training and games is determined solely by the coach. If the student had an illness, the coach can request parents to provide a medical certificate of the established form on the child’s ability to play football and endure physical activity.
  • Parents should understand that the student’s training begins at home, and not 20 minutes before it starts, but much earlier.
  • A coach has the right to set homework (performing various exercises, watching and analyzing football matches, recommendations for proper nutrition of students, etc.).
  • It is necessary to train with a kid individually both at home and outside. Due to this interaction WE educate future professional football players together!
  • Encourage your child to refrain from dangerous play during practice and matches.
  • Teach your child to respect not only his teammates, coaches, team leader, referees, but also opponents.
  • Applaud individual and group efforts and good play as well as success.
  • Do not disregard the requests of coaches.
  • Take football only as a GREAT GAME, which, we hope, your kids play with great joy, getting stronger physically and tempering morally, acquiring new mates.

A few tips on how to behave at the stadium:

  • Try not to attract the attention of others and not create a stir around yourself. The vast majority of children do not like it when their parents actively manifest themselves in such situations.
  • Watch the game. You can communicate with the parents of other players who came to watch the game, but do not forget to look at the field from time to time, because balls in football are not often scored, so if you talk, you risk missing a key moments of the match. Now imagine that your child hits the opponent’s goal and, accepting congratulations from his teammates, looks for you on the stand, and at this moment you are talking with a neighbour and do not even look in the direction of your kid. Be attentive!
  • Don’t try giving advice. After all, you are not the one who plays football, but your child. Therefore, it is not necessary to constantly coordinate his actions while sitting on the stand. By doing this, you will only distract him, while your main task is to communicate with him/her after the game.
  • Maintain equal relations with all your child’s teammates without exception. Do not focus on the stars of the team, it can offend your kid’s mates.
  • Support decently. You should not shout insults at the referee, opponents or players of your team who have blundered in this or that situation.

DEAR PARENTS,
PLEASE, READ THESE RULES AND OBSERVE THEM CAREFULLY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION!
