Guidelines For Parents
Parents & Guardians Must:
- Abide by the rules regarding conduct as stated in this policy.
- Respect participants and Club officials, particularly avoid criticism which may cause offence to other participants or guardians. Adopt a positive and sportsmanlike attitude during competitions.
- Remember that children learn best by example.
- Supervise any children not involved in a coached session to ensure safety.
- Show appreciation to coaches and officials. Remember most are volunteers and without them your child could not participate.
- Encourage children to participate, do not force them.
- Assist your gymnast in arriving punctually for training; adequate warm up is essential preparation for activity, and avoidance of injury.
- Ensure that the session has a coach present before leaving your child at the gym. We will endeavour to contact you if a session is cancelled, but cannot be responsible if your child is left when a session is not run.
- Please be punctual in collecting your child. Unless alternative arrangements have been made, coaches are advised to inform the emergency services if a child has not been collected after 45 minutes, and no contact can be made on the telephone numbers held at the gym.
- Inform the Club if your child cannot attend any session when expected.
- Inform the Club of any change of details to ensure that you are contactable at all times in the event of en emergency. All members must complete a Club registration/medical form prior to taking part in sessions.
- Inform coaches of any medical condition which could affect training.
- If you wish to speak to a coach, please be patient. Coaches are responsible for gymnasts' safety and as such may not be able to speak to you immediately.
- Encourage a healthy balanced diet for your child. High level training also requires good fluid intake – water or squash, not fizzy drinks.
If you feel able to offer help in the form of assisting coaching, fundraising etc. please let us know – it's your Club too!
