[quote=Anonymous]Having worked with a number of clubs (front office and coaching) and watched way too many clubs a couple of things I’ve noticed: 1. Not all parents behave terribly but those that do really can sour an entire season. The tone and behavior goes beyond what should be acceptable in children's sports. Particularly with the racial and sexist abuse towards players and referees. 2. To be fair it isn’t just parents- coaches can also act terrible as can players. On the coaches end the clubs and state associations need to do less protecting of those that behave in this manner. On the players end-if the behavior isn’t accepted in schools why should it be anywhere else? 3. I think why parents get a bad rap is because they are the crowd at a game and there is this perception that because they are a crowd they can do whatever they want. [/quote]
