Reccos Violence Unacceptable

Hon. David G. Hancock, QC, MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Edmonton-Whitemud

Dear David:

We have to get referees, parents, coaches & the students/players themselves II stop the violence. Soccer & all sports should be both fair & fun. There is no room IV roughousing in games. The more violence free sports are, the better the overall excitement level & the better the kids will play. The more exciting the game, the higher the attendance figures. Then word will spread like wildfire about what a great time the kids are having. Not just athletically, but making many new social friends, both on their own team & from the opposition.

A Yellow Card,

Rory
