What is expected of parents and spectators at games?
Parents and spectators are expected to follow the rules and bylaws of TCRSA and its affiliates, including the TCRSA Zero Tolerance Policy and the NTSSA Code of Conduct. Parents and spectators must remain in the designated parent/spectator areas during games, refrain from coaching the team and players, and respect and obey the decisions of the referee(s) at all times. Coaches will ultimately be held responsible for the behavior of their team parents/spectators. They should not expect to have a perfect game called by the referee. Remember that most of our referees are just kids. Parents and spectators should support all referees, adult or youth, and aid them in their efforts to continue to be a better referee. Any concerns that a parent or spectator may have with a referee should be addressed in a kind and friendly manner to the TCRSA Director of Referees.
