While present at any Beeliar Spirit Soccer Club function, parents are to respect each other, other members of Beeliar Spirit Soccer Club, Visitors and Match officials. Parents are to acknowledge the following;
1. Do not drop your child off and drive away. The coach &/or manager is not responsible for your child’s safety or well being. This can only be done with prior arrangement with the coach & only with under12s, 13s & 14s.
1a. Be prompt when collecting your child – the club, its coaches and team managers are all volunteers and not responsible outside of the game / training times.

Beeliar Spirit Soccer Club Rules
1. The club Philosophy doesn't support grading teams at the younger age groups of under 8s to under 11s. Grading only comences when the teams starts to play for points, which is the under 12s league and upwards. In some instances it will be necessary for the club to grade players according to their ability; this is for the benefit of the players and allows them to compete against teams / players of similar abilities. In the case of Under 8 to 11 squads this would only happen with the endorsement of all parents, players, and the Committee.
2. In the sub junior grades (Under 6 through to Under 11 squads) players will be rotated as equally as possible during games. This will be decided by the coach at his/her discretion.
3. In junior divisions (Under 12 to Under 18 squads), playing time will progressively be based on ability, fitness, game / training performance and team strategy.
4. Beeliar Spirit will endeavor to field teams with a maximum of 4 reserve players to ensure that all players receive sufficient game time.
5. If player registrations exceed the “4 reserve maximum” in an age group, a composite team may be formed. If required, a panel including the team coach, the club’s head coach, coaching director and committee members will select each squad.
6. Where it is not possible to fit all registered players in an age based or composite team, registrations will be declined in the following order;
a. Registrations received after the last advertised registration date.
b. Players with registration fees that have not been paid by the final grading day (and at the discretion of the Committee in the event of financial hardship).
c. Based on previous attendance at training sessions, grading days and participation in the club’s activities (such as training teams, skills clinics etc).
- Team compositions may be adjusted during the season on occasions to accommodate abilities, injuries or withdrawals. Your child may be selected to play in a team different from his/her friend.
Complaints & disciplinary Procedures
1. If you have a complaint or issue, direct your comments to the Team Manager on training nights, not on match days. If further action is necessary, complaints must be sent in writing to the Club Vice President or secretary for initial review & then further the issue to the committee to review if a solution is not forthcoming.
2. If a club member / parent breaches normal acceptable standards of behavior, such as bad language, vandalism, theft, abusive behavior, violation of confidential information or conduct unbecoming a member of the club, that person may be called upon to appear before the committee and a formal written apology must be given.
3. If the behavior of member/ parent results in fines being imposed on the club then the individual concerned will be expected to pay those fines unless they can justify otherwise to the committee.
4. The Club reserves the right to suspend or expel any member or player who fails to abide by the club rules, regulations and codes of behavior, as published by the Beeliar Spirit Soccer Club.
5. No player or member is to have contact with the Football Federation /Football west or any other organization on club matters without the permission of the Club President or Secretary
