Bully Behavior

Where one person in a relationship with another or others holds a significantly greater degree of power in that relationship, and uses that power to intimidate, control, demean, and/or harm others. This is disrespectful.

Respect

Respect is a cornerstone for coaches, athletes, parents, and players in sport.

When is it right to be disrespectful of another human being? NEVER!
