Problems in the Bathroom!

Fabulous and Ferocious Panther Parents,
I am asking you all for some help with a small situation that has come up. There seems to be some silliness going on in the bathrooms. Please remind your child that the bathrooms are for doing your business and washing hands and nothing else. There are several different things that are going on in the bathroom.

1. There is a candy club. The kids are bringing candy and trading in the bathroom. Not really a big deal except for they are doing it during practice when they should not be eating candy. The snack machines should really be used for special occasions and not for every practice treats. The kids complain about belly aches during practice. I am sure it is too much candy intake. You are talking to the queen of candy herself but there is a time and place for candy. Mid practice is the not the time and the bathroom is not the place. :) Also this club has not included everyone nor has it accepted everyones candy choices. So I think it is best to save this club for outside of the gym.
2. There are some light switch flippers in the group! Let's be sure to keep the light switches on. We do turn them off at night when we leave. During the week the lights have been turned off on little gymnastics kiddos. Can you imagine how scary that can be for a little one? Sometimes it may be a habit for some and good them but we must keep the light on for everyone to do their business in the bathroom. :)
3. We have some young ladies sharing stalls and using toilets to stand on. Let's be sure that one person per stall and toilets are not for standing on. I would not want to wear a cheer shoe all season long that has been in the public toilet. Yuck! Those are pretty expensive shoes to put in a toilet!
4. Lastly some of the kids are sharing their opinion of other athletes while in the bathroom. This has made some of the Panthers very sad to hear their teammates talk negative about them. The coaches will correct and help every Panther become they best they can be. Everyone brings something to the team and without each and every player we could not do the routine we have, put up the stunts, and make great big Fabulous mounts! Please remind each Panther to only use kind words. All opinions should be kept themselves. A high five, pat on the back and kind words will go a long way.
   
   If everyone will go over this with their Panther that would be great. We as coaches will also discuss with the kids as well. A coach will accompany the team on rest room breaks as well. I know things like this come up when working with this age. Let's be sure that the Panthers and going to the bathroom are a positive experience for everyone! Thanks all for your help!
   Cheers,
   Heather
