Hi there
netball families!
With our season about to begin on Saturday, I believe now is the perfect time for some important
reminders about Fair Play and being a supportive spectator at the netball courts.
SPECTATORS
The children really do appreciate all the positive
cheers they can get!
· * Please
stand well back from the side line so the umpire can move freely to control the
game.
· * Please
be tolerant of umpires. I am aware that the umpires are not always up to
scratch and may at times make decisions that you may not agree with HOWEVER
they are doing the best they can. Without these umpires your child would not be
able to play! So please, as parents, coaches and supporters lead by example.
· * Please
remember that the coach instructs the team at the break times.
· * Please
refrain from standing/leaning on the goal posts and shouting at the
players.
· * Please
do not shoot at goals when a game is taking place.
· * Please
choose a spot to support your child and their team and stay there rather than
pace up and down the side line.
· * Name
calling and any other ‘negative’ outbursts are not acceptable and does not
represent the fair play code Waikanae School tries hard to maintain.
We have a distinctive RED
uniform and are easily identified.
Please note: Children are to be supervised at the netball
courts. If you can’t be with your child,
please arrange with another adult for supervision.
If you have any problems,
please don’t hesitate to contact me.
