How bad is shouting and abuse from the sidelines?

How bad has our behavior become on pitch sidelines, not just in adult sports, but at children’s matches?One listener got in touch to express his shock and disgust at what he witnessed at his son’s Feile competition over the weekend.The competition, which was the focus of 14 and 15 year old players, saw management and parents hurling abuse at the young players as well as the other teams management. Is this acceptable behavior, or does more need to be done to put a stop to this?Joining Andrea to discuss is Paddy Osbourne, former Coach and Referee, Lisa O’Sullivan Shaw (@modernirishmom on Instagram), Antonio Montero, Coach and Founder of the Silent Sideline Campaign and listeners.
