SIDELINE BEHAVIOR

Teams participating in CYSA Cup events are advised that due to an increasing number of complaints and incidents regarding inappropriate behavior on the sidelines at soccer matches, the CYSA Board of Directors has instructed the referees to remind each team of section 3:08:03 of the CYSA General Procedures and to inform the team officials during their pre-game instructions to the teams that it is CYSA’s intent to enforce this policy. All spectators should be advised accordingly as it is the coach who is ultimately held accountable for the behavior of the spectators associated with his or her team. Please help us enhance everyone’s enjoyment of the game by reminding your team members and spectators of their obligation to abide by this procedure.

3:08:03 Coaching from the sidelines, giving direction to one’s own team on points of strategy and position, is permitted provided:

No mechanical devices are used.
The tone of voice is informative and not a harangue.
No coach, substitute, player, or spectator is to be anywhere but at his/her bench area during the game. A team’s bench area shall be that area one (1) yard from the touchline and extending to ten (10) yards, one way, from the half-line only.
No coach, substitute, player or spectator is to make derogatory remarks or gestures to the referees, other players, substitutes, or spectators.
No coach, substitute, or player is to use profanity.
No coach, substitute, player, or spectator is to incite, in any manner, disruptive behavior of any kind.

The penalty for the above shall be ejection from the game and disciplinary action will be taken by the Board of Directors of this Association.
