Code of Conduct - Parents |
BRFC will encourage Parents/Guardians/Carers to:
- Be familiar with the coaching and match programme in
order that they can ensure that their child is fully involved and the coaches
are aware of their availability.
- Be familiar with the teaching and coaching methods used
by observing the coaching sessions in which their child participates.
- Be aware that BRFC has a Duty of Care to ensure that the
safety of players and therefore, where appropriate, assist coaches with the
supervision of players, particularly where numbers are large and there is a
need to transport players to away fixtures.
- Be involved with BRFC activities and share their
expertise, qualifications or skills
- Share concerns, if they have any, with BRFC officials.
- Be familiar with the BRFC Codes of Conduct contained
within this document and the Conduct Guidelines set on in the RFU Continuum. In
particular be aware that coaches should recognise the importance of fun and
enjoyment when coaching players, and coaches should keep winning and losing in
perspective, encouraging players to behave with dignity in all circumstances.
Support coaches in instilling these virtues to their children.
- Remember that young people play rugby for their
enjoyment - do not force them if they do not want to play.
- Focus on the efforts of the player - not on winning.
- Be realistic about the ability of their child, do not
push them towards a level that they are not capable of achieving.
- Provide positive verbal feedback, both in training and
during any games.
- Remember that persistent negative messages will
adversely affect the players' and referee's performance and attitude.
- Always support BRFC in their efforts to eradicate loud,
coarse and abusive behaviour from the game.
- Remember that all young people learn much by example.
- Always show appreciation of good play from any player
from either BRFC or the opposing team.
- Respect any decision made by match officials, even if
they appear to be incorrect, and encourage the players to do the same.
