@MiltStegallTSN good morning. I am reaching out as a fan and football guy. I lost my son last year. If you ever want to chat, send me a line. I have been there.

During pre-game interview, John Tavares asked how he deals with negativity & says the "Man in the Arena" quote from Theodore Roosevelt has always resonated with him
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles ..."
Encouraging others isn’t hard. Words of support, and acknowledging someone’s efforts, helps us all go out and try harder to do better. Don’t be frugal with your applause or “you can do this!”. Costs you zero and can make a huge diff to someone trying.
Let’s start there
Morning!!

Players: Your athletic career is most likely temporary; your character lasts a lifetime. The person you are is far more important than the player you are. What are your habits? Are you grateful, humble, honest. Do you care for others? Be someone people respect on & off the court.
Kids do NOT care about bad referees unless the adults do. Period.
If the adults (coaches/parents) focus on the refs, then the kids will too.
Whining, complaining and blaming referees is something weak minded people do.
Referees, good or bad, are just part of the game.
So what SHOULD parents do during games?
Cheer/praise great EFFORT & positive ATTITUDES.
Emphasize being coachable, a great teammate & having fun.
Focus on development (process), not winning/losing (outcome).
Smile and enjoy watching your child do something they enjoy ❤️
The ONLY way for kids to benefit from sports and have a positive experience is by respecting these roles:
Coaches coach
Players play
Referees officiate
Parents encourage/support
The moment anyone gets out of their lane and tries to do someone else’s job - we have a problem!
