Become the parent your child needs you to be when it comes to their sporting experience.
We've taken one of our most popular and important courses and created an online version which you can complete at home on the computer, tablet, or even on the phone!
This session starts with the premise that sport is about life, life is not about sport. Many children form too much of their identities around their sporting talents and achievements, rather than the character strengths and the values they demonstrate. This will give parents a clear perspective on how to support coaches and clubs in positive ways and how to conduct themselves at junior sporting matches.
They are challenged to see that sport is an opportunity to set their kids up for life success and are encouraged to help their children value strengths such as courage, discipline, teamwork, good decision-making, good communication, and sacrifice. In this session, parents are provided with fantastic tools to prepare their children to be strong, caring, capable, and successful adults.
What you'll get:
- An investment into yourself and your child's future.
- Online access to SALT's self-guided Positive Parenting course, with videos and quizzes.
- A Certificate of Completion at the end of the course, accepted and welcomed at SALT partner clubs.
Topics covered:
- How sport can prepare our kids for life
- Sport and identity
- Managing success and disappointment
- Barracking or bullying
- Positive encouragement
- Reflective questioning and active listening
- Parents, umpires and coaches
