KIDS ZONE KEEP IT FRIENDLY
Fans in AYSO (including parents) are asked to be cheerleaders, not critics or sideline coaches. Kids Zone is a unique program that asks parents to sign a Parent Pledge committing to positive and encouraging behavior.
Soccer is a player’s game. Players learn the game by trying new things, making mistakes and trying again.
Negative and even violent behavior from players, Coaches and parents involved in youth sports has become an epidemic in our country. Kids Zone is a proactive effort to counteract this trend.
To help promote this program, a large sideline poster listing positive behavior standards (available at the AYSO Store) can be posted at the entrance of participating fields. Parents and spectators who will abide by these standards are welcome.
