5 SIGNS OF TOXIC PARENTS IN YOUR SPORTS PROGRAM 

📝 Kmillz (MFVAllSportsNetwork)

Over the years covering DMV sports, we’ve spoken with many AD’s, coaches, referees and players; and one thing they say ruins sports is toxic parents. And so let’s discover, what are five signs you have a sports progam filled with toxic parents:

1 – DISRESPECT FOR COACHES, REFREES & PLAYERS

These types will show up to games to yell at refs, coaches, and/or other players.

2 – ITS REALLY ABOUT THEM AND NOT THEIR ATHLETE

They are FULL of themselves and disguise it behind their children.

3 – CONSTANT CRITICS

They have a complaint and critique about everything. They kill motivation.

4 – THEY DON’T SUPPORT THE TEAM

It will be about their kid and not the team as a whole. 

5 – KINGS & QUEENS OF DRAMA & DIVISION 

These are the parents having their own group chats and gossip sessions. They encourage division and promote disrespect and hatred.

What’s even more dangerous, toxic leaders/organizations that support them. What can be done to handle such people? We’ll discuss next time. Thank you for listening.
