CONTEST RULES AND REFEREE EDUCATION for Parents

The Importance of Parental Involvement in Youth Sports

      Parents play a significant role in shaping their child’s sports experience. Children observe and emulate the behavior demonstrated by others, with parents often being the initial introduction to sports.

     The level of parental involvement can directly impact whether a child enjoys the experience or not. A positive and enjoyable attitude from parents towards sports enhances a child’s interest and enjoyment in the activity.

     It is important for parents to acquaint themselves with judo contest rules and comprehend their underlying purpose.
