Parental behaviour on the sideline can have a bigger impact than we realise.
Join us for a workshop exploring how the behaviour of parents and spectators can influence children’s enjoyment, confidence and long-term relationship with sport and physical activity.
This is a workshop that could be offered in your club to parents, or that you could take away to have the conversation yourselves to help challenge some of the sideline behaviours that can be seen in sport.
We’ll look at:
- The impact of positive and negative sideline behaviour
- How to have supportive conversations with children after the game
- Practical strategies for responding when emotions run high
- Active bystander principles – how we can all play a part in creating a more positive sporting environment
- How clubs can encourage a culture where children feel supported to enjoy, learn and develop
This isn’t about telling parents how to behave; it’s about understanding the impact parental behaviour and language can have and giving everyone the tools to make the sideline a more positive place for children.
Why? Because the game should belong to the children.
