We would appreciate your company’s support by sponsoring a GPYAC soccer team.

THE PARENT'S ROLE AT SOCCER MATCHES
-
Do not coach any of the players from the sidelines during the game, including your own child. We do not tolerate parents yelling directions at players. Let the coaches do the coaching! Referees or park supervisors will instruct hecklers to leave the field.
-
Respect the judgment of the referee and do not criticize officials. Referees, coaches and kids will make mistakes during a game. Mistakes offer learning opportunities.
-
Supportive parents focus on mastering soccer skills and game strategies. Be a role model.
-
Believe that soccer's primary value is to provide opportunities for self-development on and off the field.
-
Communicate with your coach to create a respectful and supportive working relationship.
-
Realize that this is still a GAME. If your child does not enjoy the game, they will not play well — and maybe not play at all. Forget the calls, the score and the standings. Enjoy your time at the park with family and friends.
-
Be willing to help. Coaches volunteer their time to help your player and often sacrifice time away from their own families to do so. Things like scheduling, communication, snacks and equipment organization can be taken care of by parents so everything does not fall on coaches.
-
GPYAC endeavors to have a great atmosphere for our program participants. Please contact your coach first if you have questions. Park supervisors will be available during games. If something cannot be resolved please contact the director through the YAC email address.
