Parents & Guardians should:
  • Always show respect for all players, opponents, managers/coaches and officials.
  • Have realistic expectations for your son/daughter and don’t put him/her under undue pressure.
  • Ensure that your son/daughter arrives on time for training and matches and that safe arrangements are in place for getting your son/daughter home afterwards.
  • Attend matches and support Rosslare Rangers AFC activities whenever possible.
  • Leave coaching to the coaches.
  • Respect the managers/coaches decisions.
  • Assist when asked.
  • Accept disappointment, praise good work and refrain from criticising.
  • Support the club’s fund-raising activities where possible.
  • If your son/daughter requires hospital treatment a parent must attend.
  • Emphasise skill development and practice over winning and how they benefit your child (and other children/players). De-emphasise games and competition in the lower age groups.
  • As you may be aware the Managers, Coaches and committee members are volunteers and have lives outside the Club.Therefore any queries you may have if they could be addressed within RRAFC days and times.
