WAIBOP Message: Managing Game Day

The new junior football season has kicked off and its great to see young players from across our Federation enjoying the beautiful game!  The start of each new season does sometimes bring challenges for those managing the Game Day experience, especially when things don’t go to plan.  So, we have produced a guide that we hope will assist you in your endeavour to make each game day as enjoyable and beneficial as it can be for everyone involved.  The guide will provide you with some considerations and solutions to better manage the games that may require some ‘out of the box’ adjustments.

Over time we have found that the most important factor to ensuring games are enjoyed by everyone is the willingness of the coaches from each team to work together to make sure that every player is enjoying their football experience.  We strongly urge coaches to stand together and find the best solution should a game be unbalanced or lop-sided.  Remember that when young players stop enjoying the game they stop playing the game.
