Respectober - Praise For Manager
The League has received this email today:
"I watched the Porter v Staveley Under 15s match yesterday and must write in praising the Staveley management duo.
They had the best player on the pitch who, unfortunately had a swearing fit. As quick as you like the manager asked him to stop swearing. The player refused and within 5 seconds he had been substituted. This was a manager who really does understand the RESPECT campaign. Taking the lad off weakened his team but he did it without a second thought. He encouraged his players to play the game correctly and to show players from Porter, parents and the referee respect at all times. Whether they won or lost. I have run teams, and was loud, overly competitive and generally a pain in the backside. This guy made me feel embarrassed about how I used to run a team. He was fantastic…… absolutely fantastic.
Cheers
