Little League has been a fulfilling experience. The re- ■
wards are great, and incalcuable in terms of benefits.
“Deportment of parents at Little League games has
many times caused criticism of the program. While it is
the prerogative of baseball fans at professional games to j
voice loud, uncomplimentary opinions of umpires, mana-
gers and players, this practice is not condoned at Little
League games.
“Parents must accept the fact that umpires, coaches t
and others identified with the program are volunteers and
should not be subjected to criticism during ball games,
especially by others who are unwilling even to lend a hand.
In the broad sense. Little League is a training activity for
adults, as well as for the boys, and it can not be empha-
sized too strongly that parents who usually comprise a
majority of the spectators have a responsibility to re-
spect the volunteer status of other adults who make
Little League possible.
