One of those ideas that sound great to say , but does it really help the kids preparre for real life? Proper cheering and not jeering I am all for, nothing but clapping.. well that sounds more like an opera not a sporting event.



Well said Chief. Nothing realistic about this at all. Could also be compared to a polo match or maybe a horse show. Kids enjoy hearing spirited enthusiasm form the sidelines. Crass verbal volleys are a completely different issue and should be restricted for sure. They've just gone too far as far as I'm concerned.
