KIDS FIRST, WERE NOT PLAYING FOR SHEEP STATIONS 1 Remember that children play sport for their enjoyment, not yours.
2 Encourage children to participate –
do not force participation upon them.
3 Focus on the child’s efforts and self esteem rather than whether they win or lose.
4 Encourage children to always participate according to the rules.
5 Never ridicule or yell at a child for making a mistake or for the team losing a game.
