ENHANCING THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE High School Sports engage more individuals, families, and communities in a shared experience than any other activity.. High School Sports present countless teachable moments where ethical values such as empathy, moral courage, fairness, responsibility, and respect for self and others can be developed. High School Sports connect students to caring adults in their learning community who foster social-emotional intelligence and academic success. High School Sports provide schools a platform to promote school pride and culture.

Communication COMMUNICATIONS YOU SHOULD EXPECT FROM YOUR CHILD S COACH: Philosophy of the coach Expectation the coach has for your child Location and times of all practices and games Team requirements, i.e. practices, out of season training, etc. Procedures to follow should your child be injured during participation Discipline that may result in the denial of your child s participation COMMUNICATION THAT COACHES EXPECT FROM PARENTS: Concerns expressed directly to the coach Specific concerns with regard to a coach s expectations Notification of any illness, injury or missed practices.
Communication APPROPRIATE CONCERNS TO DISCUSS WITH THE COACH(ES): Treatment of your child, mentally and physically Ways to help your child improve Concerns about your child s behavior
Communication ISSUES NOT APPORIATE TO DISCUSS WITH THE COACH: Playing time Team strategy Play calling Other student-athletes There are situations that may require a conference between the coach and the parent. The student-athlete will be invited and involved in these meetings. To resolve the problem, we must have everyone s help and involvement.
Communication IF THERE IS A PROBLEM: Have your son/daughter talk to the coach, one on one (it s part of grow up). IF THIS DOES NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM, THE PARENTS SHOULD: Call the school or email the coach requesting a meeting with the coach. Coaches will make time available in their day to meet with students and parents. PARENTS MUST NOT: Confront the coach before, during or after practice. Confront the coach before, during or after a game. The Coach is a teacher. A parent would not walk into a classroom during class time and yell at the teacher about a poor grade, so please do not confront the coach in public. Likewise you (the parent) would not like to be confronted by a disgruntled customer in your work place! There are proper ways and methods to communicate and have your concerns addressed. Practices and games are highly emotional times for everyone involved and concerns do not get resolved during emotional times.
