What parents can do to help:
1. Support your child's efforts to be an athlete.
2. Help your student athlete organize his/her time.
3. Continue to encourage your child to maintain a healthy diet and good sleep habits.
4. Win or lose, encourage your child!
5. If you play tennis, take the time to hit with your son or daughter.
Watching a match:
1. Be positive and supportive.
2. Applaud good points - do not applaud errors and/or bad shots by the opponents.
3. Do not talk to the players during the match - only the coach (s) may talk to players while they are on the court.
4. After the match, focus on the player's efforts rather than the win or loss.
5 Demonstrate and support good sportsmanship.
