• Beginning with U8 games, parents and spectators are to sit on the opposite side of field from players and coaches, with parents on the east facing west, and coaches/players on the west facing east (for fields 6 & 7, parents and spectators should be on the south side facing north and players/coaches on the north facing south).
• No parent, coach, spectator or player is to sit or stand behind either of the goal lines/ends on the north and south ends of the fields (east and west ends for fields 6 & 7).

• The referee is to stop the game if a parent is out of line.  The game will not restart until the incident is resolved.
• The referee is to stop the game if a major infraction occurs and counsel the player with or without the coach - use it as a teaching moment.
• The coach or referee can have a player who is not following good sportsmanship sit out until they are ready to participate appropriately.
• Coaches should assist the referee at beginning of game, by making sure athletes are dressed appropriately (shin guards on with appropriate socks, jersey tucked, no jewelry, no zippers, no toe cleats, etc.).
