For assistance, contact Valerie Langford, Child Safety Coordinator, at valerie@stpatsch.org.
BEHAVIOR: The behavior of both the coaches and fans will again be very emphasized this year to avoid any incidents between opposing coaches, fans, players, or referees. There is a NO tolerance policy in effect. If an incident occurs, you will be asked to leave the field immediately and possibly suspended for the next game or more depending on the severity of the incident. This pertains to anyone attending or coaching a game. Please help us make this a pleasant experience for our children.
