WHY DO WE NEED IT ?
Junior football at its best is two teams enjoying healthy recreation.
However, as with most things, there is a dark side.
Poor Behaviour on the touchline
Poor Health and Safety
Inadequate Supervision
Poor Coaching
Unpleasant they may be but as responsible adults we are the guardians of these children and must be prepared to put in a little time and effort to ensure their well being.
