If a parent is getting a bit out of hand the referee stops the game ONE TIME and warns the coach to quiet the parent or remove them. If the ref has to stop the game again the team forfeits it's game.<br /><br />Also their Sunday games are "quiet" games. Parents nor coaches cannot say a word during the match or risk a forfeit.Ben and Benniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12165216797183902071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19673259.post-88314978601756094042006-12-20T17:33:00.000-06:002006-12-20T17:33:00.000-06:00Because of my son's disabilities I will won't have...Because of my son's disabilities I will won't have opportunity to participate in a "normal" sports environment. My daughter has chosen not to play the team sports of most of her peers. Instead she is participating in team dance competition. Interesting that very few males are in those competitions. Perhaps the lack of testosterone on the sidelines make her events less dangerous?
