FC Peoria Volunteer Policy Volunteerism is the foundation of all youth organizations. From the Board of Directors all the way through to the parents, the sharing of time and resources ensures success Travel Team Volunteering
Requirement - 3 hours in the fall and 3 hours in the spring per family.
Each family is required to volunteer throughout the year to help in the successful running of the club. Areas include; bathrooms, indoor facilities, winter concessions and outdoor crew, as well opportunities to help with running and planning events. You will be invited to signup for one of these areas when you register your player(s) on the FC Peoria web site. Any family that does not sign up for a specific area during registration will be assigned where needed. Volunteer hours are scheduled and tracked using SignUpGenius.com. Please be sure to sign up for all hours that you complete so that you get credit for the work that you do. All volunteers must check-in at the front desk (or garage for outdoor crew). Consequences of not fulfilling the required commitments will be a $150 fee added to your account per family per season, unless otherwise approved by board of directors due to extenuating circumstances.

Duties will be assigned by team and each family will be required to signup according to their team(s).

Code of Conduct for Parents As a parent of a player at the FC Peoria Association, I agree to: Be my child’s best fan! Support my child unconditionally and make him/her feel like a winner! Remember that children participate in sport for their enjoyment, not mine. Encourage children to participate, do not force them. Focus on the child's efforts and performance rather than winning or losing. Encourage children always to play according to the rules and to settle disagreements without resorting to hostility or violence. Never ridicule or yell at a child for making a mistake. Remember that children learn best by example. Appreciate good performances and skillful plays by all participants. Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from all soccer activities. Respect the decisions of officials and teach children to do likewise. Learn the rules of the game and the policies of the organization and the FC Peoria Fields. Show appreciation and respect for coaches, officials and administrators. Respect the rights, dignity and worth of every young person regardless of their gender, ability, cultural background or religion. Be kind to my child's coach, other volunteers including board members and concession workers and to the officials. The coaches, board members and concession workers invest their personal time to provide a recreational activity for my child. They are providing a valuable community service, often without reward other than their personal satisfaction. Show respect to the referees. I will refrain from speaking to officials, unless it is to say thank you after the game. If I have questions or concerns with the referees, I will speak to the coach after the game or at practice. Refrain from coaching from the sidelines. Leave coaching to the coaches. Understand that my attitude can influence the players, coaches and spectators. Demand a sports environment for my child that is free from drugs, tobacco and alcohol. Be sure my child is available for practices and games. Practices are as important as games. Children who simply don’t show up for practice and/or games are letting everybody down. If I know my child is unable to attend a practice or game, I will give the coach reasonable advance notice to enable proper planning. Report to the coach all injuries, special medical conditions (such as asthma) or extenuating circumstances (such as lack of sleep or family crisis) that may affect the player. Send my child ready to play. My child will be dressed in uniform and will arrive on time. On transporting my child home, be supportive and always focus on the positive aspects of the game. Encourage my child to speak with the coach. If my child is having difficulties in training or games, I will encourage my child to speak directly to the coaches, understanding that taking responsibility is a big part of growing into a mature person.

Code of Conduct for Players As a player for FC Peoria, I agree to: Play by the rules. Never argue with a referee or assistant referee. If I disagree, I will speak with my coach. Control my temper and maintain control over my emotions. I will avoid bad/negative comments and/or gestures, and I know that purposely distracting or annoying an opponent is not allowed behavior in soccer. Work equally hard for myself and my team. My team's performance will benefit, so will I. Be a good sport; applaud good plays whether they are made by my team or the opposition. Treat all participants in soccer as I like to be treated. I will not bully or take unfair advantage of a competitor. Cooperate with my coach, teammates and opponents. Participate for my own enjoyment and benefit, not just to please parents and coaches.
