A huge thank you to all our parents, volunteers, and officials who have supported this message over the past 9+ years.
We’re especially grateful to our new families and supporters who have embraced our culture and made it their own.

The #DontBeThatParent initiative started with our coaches and was championed by our volunteers, particularly our match day officials, who’ve done an incredible job promoting positive sideline behavior.

Now it’s your turn.

We’re proud to have a strong club community behind #DontBeThatParent. When you’re visiting other clubs in the program, keep an eye out for the familiar “angry parent” signs and take the opportunity to help spread the message.

Team Managers and Match Day Officials:
If you spot the signage at other venues, strike up a conversation with your opposition counterparts. Share the positive impact this initiative has had at our club.

Everyone:
If you see the posters or signs at other grounds, snap a photo and share it in the chat—let’s keep the momentum going.

Thanks again to everyone for your support.
One club at a time… one league at a time… one state at a time.
