Sportsmanship
Overall, 2007 was an outstanding year for the Green Bay Strikers. We are grateful to all of our volunteer coaches, supportive parents and referees for their commitment.
While the vast majority of coaches and parents conducted themselves appropriately, last year we unfortunately had a few situations where people let their competitiveness get the best of them and lost their cool. As a result, going forward the Board is taking a very strong position against negativity in all forms, and encourage good sportsmanship. Coaches, parents and players who violate the spirit of our program by degrading players, referees or others using foul language, or otherwise deprive others from enjoying the game, will be suspended and/or expelled from the program. The League's Division Coordinators will have the authority to take the appropriate action. All parents, coaches and players are required to sign a Soccer Sportsmanship Commitment contract to signify their commitment to these goals.
Remember, the Green Bay Strikers are dedicated to having fun while learning the game of soccer. Through family involvement, we foster team spirit, sportsmanship, social development and a positive self-image. Players of all backgrounds, ages and abilities have an equal opportunity to participate, excel and enjoy the game.
