BE A SPORTING SPECTATOR

 

1.             We appeal strongly to parents to support us in maintaining a sports code.

2.             Encourage our players, but also show appreciation for good play by our opponents.

Never jeer at the opponents’ efforts or make disparaging comments.

2.                   Avoid excessive running up and down the touchline or moving onto the field

of play. This is physically dangerous to you and the players.

4.             Do not become involved in arguments with supporters of the opposing school.

5.             A steady stream of advice to the players from the sidelines can be unsettling and

confusing.

3.                   Criticism of the referee or umpire is not only unsporting, it also spoils the whole

atmosphere of the game and unsettles the players.

7.             Exercise self-control and maintain a sense of proportion.  If your team is losing,

 it is not a major tragedy!! 

8.             Be proud of your school and its achievements.
