I will not force my child to participate in curling.

I will remember that my child curls for his/her enjoyment, not mine.

I will encourage my child to play by the rules and to resolve conflict without resorting to hostility or violence.

I will teach my child that doing one's best is as important as winning so that my child will never feel defeated by the score of the game.

I will make my child feel like a winner every time by offering praise for competing fairly, for trying hard and/or for at least making a good shot sometime in the game.

I will never ridicule or yell at my child for making a mistake or losing a game.

I will remember that children learn best by example, I will:  applaud good plays and performance by both teams.

I will never question the officials judgment or honesty in public.

I will support all efforts to remove verbal abuse from curling games.

I will respect and show appreciation for all the volunteers that contribute to each team so that my child has an opportunity to curl.
