Expected Parent Behavior
LET THE KIDS PLAY!
We are so excited to welcome you and your player to the EPPL. We know soccer is a game of PASSION and we know that at times parents can really get into the game. However, it is very important we remember we are dealing with children and our actions can greatly influence their DEVELOPMENT. This is why we enforce a Parent/Spectator Code of Conduct that reflects the values of this organization and its participating clubs.
PARENT/SPECTATOR EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
PARENTS ARE EXPECTED TO:​
-
Be Supportive
-
Be Respectful
-
Show Good Sportsmanship
-
Encourage Fair Play
-
Let Coaches Coach
-
Encourage Player Development
-
Remain in Supporter Area
PARENT/SPECTATOR BEHAVIOR CONSEQUENCES
•In the event that a parent or group of parents are being disrespectful, rowdy, or showing poor sportsmanship the following will apply:
•Referee will verbally warn head coach and ask them to control their spectators.
•If behavior continues, coach will be shown a yellow card (caution)
•If behavior continues, head coach will be shown a second yellow card, subsequent red card, and will be sent off.
•Game will continue if coach leaves, and spectators improve their behavior. If those two things do not happen, game will be stopped and forfeited by the offending team regardless of the score or match type.
Field Invasion
Any field invasion by a spectator to incite or participate in a violent act will result in the offending team forfeiting the match regardless of the score or match type. A spectator must refrain from entering the field and let match officials and coaches handle in-game situations. Team will be subject to suspension from the event with no refund in the event of any pitch invasion.
ZERO TOLERANCE FOR VIOLENCE
-
In case of a violent situation within the field, coaches with valid IDs and Referees are the only authorized adults that may enter the field to control the situation.​
-
If a parent or spectator enters the field, it will be considered a FIELD INVASION.
-
Every instance of field invasion will be subject to a minimum 2 game spectator suspension. This suspension may be extended based on the severity of the incident.
-
If spectators engage in a fight before, during, or after a match the offending team forfeits that match. If no offender can be clearly identified the game will be called a NO CONTEST and no winner will be named regardless of match type or score. (INCLUDING PLAYOFFS AND FINALS)
-
If spectators engage in a fight or violent situation the entire teams’ spectators will be subject to suspension based on severity and pending league officials’ decision.
​ZERO VIOLENCE AGAINST MATCH OFFICIALS
Due to recent unfortunate circumstances, CSE has instilled the following: Any violence whatsoever by a player, coach, or spectator against a match official will result in the immediate ejection of the team involved from the event. No refunds will be issued.
