This is what TEAM sports are all about. Your role is not what you “think” you can do. Your role is what is best for the TEAM. It is not about you, it is about US. It is a mindset shift for many.

“Your role is not who you are or what you’re capable of, it’s what your team needs you to do to win.”

Why do some sports parents sit alone? - No Drama - No Complaining - They do not like Hearing Ignorance. - No Badmouthing Coaches & Officials. - They often just want to relax & Enjoy the Game! Be a part of the solution. Not the problem.

"It costs $0 to say please and thank you. It costs $0 to treat people with respect. It costs $0 to choose to do what's right. It costs $0 to check in with a friend. It costs $0 to listen to understand. It costs $0 to lend a helping hand. It costs $0 to be a positive light"

4 C’s to improve any relationship: Communicate: Where there’s a void in communication negativity fills it. Connect: Develop trust that leads to emotional safety. Commit: Serve and sacrifice for each other. Care: Don’t just go through the motions. Invest in the relationship.
