PARENT BEHAVIOR
PARENTS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO COMMUNICATE TO THE PLAYER DURING A MATCH! If your child is making errors with the score or strategy, take notes, and then take those notes to your child's coach and let them take corrective action when you get to your home lesson. That is what lessons are for. Your child learns nothing by you correcting the mistake during the match. They need to learn they are out there on their own and they must take ownership of the situation and solve problems. Most importantly, you communicating to your child breaks the rules.
