Parent Participation

Parent Participation

Many responsibilities exist beyond the normal team level commitments that make the Adaptive Sports programs njwb-tournament-flyers-crowdfunction smoothly. Parents are what make the program a quality experience for all the athletes. The Adaptive Sports can only be as good as  the parents make it. Below are some important volunteer areas that are needed during the season:

  • Washing Jerseys
  • Home Tournament Help (kitchen, concessions, raffles, clean-up, etc. )
  • Fundraising
  • Game Scorekeeping

Parent support during both games and practices is critically important to the success of the program. Be supportive of the team by ensuring your child attends each practice on-time (if not contact coach). Be a positive role model during games, whether you are a manager, an assistant coach, or simply a spectator.

Finally, please keep the following in mind:

  • Always be positive and enthusiastic.
  • Show your child positive reinforcement.
  • Observe practices and games to learn proper techniques to practice with your child.
  • Encourage your child toward skill improvement and good sportsmanship in every game.
  • Teach your child to always play by the rules.
  • Teach your child that hard work and an honest effort are often more important than a victory.
  • Applaud good plays by your team and by members of the opposing team.
  • Let the managers and coaches do the coaching.
