PARENT & PLAYER CODE OF CONDUCT
RESPECT
Players and parents must show respect toward coaches and staff, teammates, opposing players and families, referees and officials, other Soberano families, facilities, fields, and the game itself.
Disrespectful, threatening, discriminatory, abusive, or inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated.
PARENT & SIDELINE BEHAVIOR
Parents are encouraged to support and cheer for their children in a positive manner.
Coaching from the sidelines, arguing with referees, confronting opposing teams or families, or interfering with coaches during games is not acceptable.
Parents and spectators must remain in designated spectator areas. Parents and spectators are not permitted behind the goals, and only authorized players and staff may be in the team bench area.
Children who are not participating in the game may not sit on the team bench unless authorized by the coaching staff.
