Incident Summary: | Verbal altercation between referee and player during the match. After the match, the parents of the player threatened the referee and asked for his name to complain about him.
|
Comments: | Referees should not enter into verbal altercations with players. Had that not occurred, the later incident would not have followed. Parents should never engage with referees after the match, and should never threaten referees in any event. It is always inappropriate for an adult to threaten a minor with physical harm. The coaches and parents of the Madera Roja team are all required to attend a Positive Coaching Alliance course at their cost. Written evidence of attendance is to be sent to amittler@norcalpremier.com by July 1, 2017. |
