The
Boise Noon Optimist Club established the Optimist Youth Football
Program in 1949. The primary goal of the OYF Program is the
"development of boys and girls to be better citizens".
That continues to be one of the primary goals of the program
today.
1)
Children play OYF Football for their own fun! They are not
here to entertain you; they are not miniature professional
athletes, and this is not a "farm club" for an athletic
career.
3) Be supportive, i.e. be sure the player attends practices;
is picked up on time; and attends games.
6) At games, make sure your comments are positive,
or make no comment at all. Parents and spectators are required
to be on the opposite side of the field from the teams at
all times during games. Applaud good plays and efforts by
the opposing team, as well as your own team. NEVER ridicule
or scold a child for making a mistake during a game.
9) Please remember, as a parent, you are a role model
- do not use profane language or harass the players or referees.
