One Voice League Respect Initiative
One Voice League Respect Initiative
Aim
The One Voice Weekend initiative is an attempt to draw attention to the experiences of a number of children at some youth games.
Whilst acknowledging that the vast majority of matches are played in a safe and enjoyable environment in front of supportive and well-behaved adults, there is still an element of poor behaviour.
The purpose is to see how we can create more positive experiences.
When & How
It is proposed that One Voice will take place the weekend of 25th and 26th October
One coach from each team to be designated as the “voice” for the game
The voice of the designated “voice” is the only voice which should be heard throughout the game, other than players and the referee
Parents/spectator are allowed to clap only
Volunteer clubs to be responsible for policing adherence
All participating clubs would be required to email their kick off time/venue to LWO’s so that visits/publicity from media can be arranged accordingly
Interested Clubs to email League Welfare Officers.
Feedback, findings and recommendations
Clubs, including players, parents, club officials, referees, participating will be contacted after the event and asked to complete feedback form after which findings will be publicised and an action plan developed.
