They are not playing for spectators\u2019 entertainment, nor are they miniature professionals.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Applaud good performances and efforts from each team. Congratulate all participants upon their performance regardless of the game\u2019s outcome.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Respect the officials\u2019 decision.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Never ridicule or scold a child for making a mistake during a competition.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Positive comments are motivational and encourage continued effort.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Show respect for your team\u2019s opponents. Without them there would be no game.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Encourage players to follow the rules and the officials\u2019 decisions.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Demonstrate appropriate social behaviour by not using foul language, or harassing players, coaches or officials.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Comments should not interfere with the running of the game.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Student Achievements<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Congratulations to Lark Xiao (Year 3) for her outstanding effort and result at the NSWPSSA on Thursday 10 April at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre.
