[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is just my opinion, but I think if they are under 18 and/or not getting paid to play soccer, then spectators should keep their criticisms to themselves. Especially to other peoples' kids. Half the time the criticisms aren't even correct. If you think the kids on the team get motivated by it, sure shout some general encouragements or compliments after a good play. Otherwise say it under your breath or not at all.

DC's old team had a dad who was always yelling criticisms at other peoples' kids. It really annoyed the rest of us. Thankfully my DC got moved up and away from it. DC recently practiced with the old team in a combined training session, and the yelling dad's kid got in trouble for yelling at their teammates during practice. Dad was hoping their kid would be moved up for next year and it didn't happen. Probably because the higher team coach doesn't want to deal with the toxic behavior. Great job dad! [/quote]

My kid endured 4 dads!  We just mockingly called them the jury (behind their backs - why stoop to their level?) and son learned to ignore. U15.  To the PP who said it’s the parents who stay quiet are the ones who know the game - that’s a +1 in my book.[/quote]
