Encourage your child to learn the rules and play within them.

Help to set a good example by recognising fair play and applauding the good performances of all – especially the opposition.

Help your child to recognise good performance, not just results.

Discourage unfair play and arguing with officials – please draw their attention to the players' code of conduct.

Never punish or belittle a child for losing or making mistakes.

Use correct and proper language at all times.

Publicly accept officials' judgements.

Support your child's involvement and help them to enjoy their cricket, never forcing your child to take part.

Accept the instruction from coaches at all times.

Ensure that your child wears the correct clothing at all times, and where necessary, the correct protective equipment when required.

Ensure that your child looks after the equipment provided by the club.

Inform the Junior Secretary of any relevant medical condition e.g. heart problem, asthma, etc.

Inform the team manager if your child is unable to attend a match for which he/she has been selected in as timely manner as possible.

Please remember that children are not mini adults.
