The FA Respect programme
Can you please pass around to all parents/coaches in your club? - It’s worth a watch
Respect Video
Hollywood tough guy, Ray Winstone, is supporting The FA’s Respect programme by starring in an online film that aims to improve parental behaviour on the touchline at youth football matches
The film promotes The FA’s new Respect Parent Guide and you can watch the film now by clicking http://www.thefa.com/TheFA/Respect/
Winstone, 52, plays two roles in the Respect Parent Guide film – an overbearing parent who abuses the referee throughout a youth football match and a “Godfather” style character who calls for people to use their common-sense at games instead.
And Winstone, who was an FA England fans ambassador at the 2006 World Cup in Germany, believes that parents need to lose the “win at all costs” attitude and bring some enjoyment back to the game: “Kids want their parents to watch them play football but they want to be supported by them, not embarrassed.
“You’ve got all these adults screaming and shouting on the touchline but seven and eight year olds aren’t interested in tactics. They just want to play the game, be their hero for the day and dream of scoring a goal at Wembley Stadium.”
The Respect Parent Guide features different grassroots football scenarios on parent behaviour and a range of modules plus commentaries from Sir Trevor Brooking, Stuart Pearce and Robbie Earle.
Both the online Respect Parent Guide and the Ray Winstone film is on TheFA.com
