PARENT PLEDGE• As a parent of a P.L.A.Y. athlete, I will:• 1. Engage in “No-Directions Cheering”, letting the players and coaches take responsibility for the first goal of
winning. I will relentlessly focus on the second, more important, goal of using sports to teach life lessons to my child and other youth.
• 2. Set an example for my child by Honoring the Game and will encourage him/her to remember ROOTS (Respect for the Rules, Opponents, Officials, Team & Self). This includes appropriate language, comments, dress, and actions.
• 3. Use positive encouragement to fill the Emotional Tanks of my children, their teammates and coaches. As I understand people perform at their best being positive.
• 4. Reinforce the ELM of Sports Mastery with my child, meaning that I will encourage my child to… (E) put in a high level of Effort, (L) have a teachable spirit to continue to Learn and improve, (M) to quickly rebound from Mistakes.
• 5. Support my child’s commitment to their team by getting my child to and from practice and games on time. I will share in my child’s commitment to the team as an in-season sport and work with coaches when conflicts arise.
• 6. Allow a 24 hour ‘cool down, be objective’ period before I discuss any serious concerns I have with a coach before communicating with that coach in an objective and adult manner.
• Basic Parental Responsibility: • “I will represent Prior Lake Athletics with my personal best efforts, never bringing embarrassment or an unfavorable view
to my team, coaches, family, P.L.A.Y. or community• Penalty: • Abuse brings restrictions and penalties may vary from a minimum of one event suspension from P.L.A.Y. athletic events to
restriction for a season and the following sport season. It is a Privilege not a Right to be in a P.L.A.Y. program.
