EDMSL is once again supporting the FA's Silent Support Weekend this year.
On 2nd-3rd March, we’ll be asking our clubs to keep their sidelines silent, apart from the applause.
This will give players the freedom to learn for themselves, coaches a safe space to teach without interruptions, and spectators the chance to step back and enjoy the game. #SilentSupport2024
Silent Support in a nutshell:
Players and Match Officials can keep talking on the pitch.
Coaches support the players as they need to - positive reinforcement only - let the players make their own decisions
Spectators support good play through applause only.
