Op-Ed: Dear Mom and Dad: Cool it!

If you are the mother or father of a high school athlete here in Wisconsin, this message is primarily for you. When you attend an athletic event that involves your son or daughter, cheer to your heart’s content, enjoy the camaraderie that high school sports offer and have fun. But when it comes to verbally criticizing game officials or coaches, cool it.

Throughout the rivalry game it became more and more apparent we wouldn’t have any sportsmanship issues. It was apparent that both teams had respect for the game, officials, and opponents!  I went out of my way after game to tell both coaches, as well as the Chetek athletic director that I was super impressed with the sportsmanship and respect of the players and coaches.

We were greeted by the athletic director at the door and taken to our room.  The AD was friendly and always asking if there was anything we needed. During the game,  the coaches, fans and players were fantastic. Coaches had questions, but they asked them in a respectful manner. Fans were cheering for their team. Players were playing hard as a team and were very friendly and receptive to the feedback we provided.  Following the game, the AD was there and promptly took us to the locker room and thanked us for our time. It was truly a great game to officiate.
