In recent months, the national media has focused on
the negative, even violent, behavior of players, coaches and parents involved
in youth sports. In a proactive effort to counteract this trend of
violence, AYSO is initiating a program called Kid's
Zone
As part of AYSO's education agenda,
Kid's Zone is a dynamic program targeted to eliminate negative sideline
behavior. It is aimed toward producing a thoroughly positive impact on
everyone involved in youth soccer.
To execute this program, three basic elements are involved:
1. The
Badge:
This is a pin-on badge bearing the program's logo. This
will be worn by program supporters at games, and will serve as reminder of the
importance of positive sideline
behavior.
2. The
Sign:
A large sign, which lists positive
behavior standards, will be posted at the entrance of participating fields.
All who feel they can abide by these standards are welcome to enter, all
others are not.
3. The
Pledge:
We will request AYSO parents to sign a pledge that holds the to the Kid's
Zone
standards.
In
order to make this program work, we need everyone's help!
Please work with Region 341 to make this program a success.
