Peak Squash PArENT Policy

PARENT & GUARDIAN POLICY

At Peak Squash, our mission is to create a healthy, disciplined, and supportive environment where every athlete can reach their potential β€” both on and off the court. Parents and guardians play a vital role in shaping this environment.

This policy outlines expectations to ensure that our program remains positive, professional, and built on mutual respect.

🎯 OUR SHARED GOAL

To help your child grow as an athlete and a person β€” learning discipline, teamwork, and resilience through squash.

πŸ”‘ OUR VALUES (FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED)

1. Respect

β€’ Speak positively about players, coaches, officials, and opponents.

β€’ Allow the coach to coach β€” avoid sideline instructions during training or competition.

β€’ Treat all players fairly, regardless of ability or background.

2. Accountability

β€’ Ensure your child arrives on time, prepared, and ready to train.

β€’ Communicate any absences, injuries, or concerns in advance.

β€’ Support your child’s learning by reinforcing the same standards at home β€” effort, humility, and consistency.

3. Effort

β€’ Encourage your child to give their best effort β€” not just to win, but to improve.

β€’ Recognise progress over perfection. Celebrate growth, not just results.

4. Humility

β€’ Model grace in victory and composure in defeat.

β€’ Teach your child to respect officials and accept feedback.

β€’ Remember: success in sport comes from patience and process.

5. Communication

β€’ Direct all questions, feedback, or concerns privately to Coach Sunny.

β€’ Keep communication respectful and solutions-focused.

β€’ In case of serious matters (health, scheduling, behaviour), arrange a meeting β€” not a COURT-SIDE conversation.

πŸ“Œ ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES

β€’ Parents are welcome to observe sessions quietly but must not interfere with drills or match play.

β€’ Encourage healthy recovery habits: hydration, rest, nutrition, and balance with academics.

β€’ Support a positive team culture β€” our language, tone, and energy matter.

We’re building more than athletes β€” we’re building strong, respectful individuals who will carry these values far beyond sport.

Let’s work together to make this environment one we can all be proud of.
