All practices held at home field:

Seacrest Complex
2505 Seacrest Blvd.
Delray Beach, FL 33447

Games

Home games are held at Seacrest. Away games are held in South Florida locations such as Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, and Parkland. Most of our teams play approximately half away and half home games.

Riptide prides itself on our values of hard work, dedication, sportsmanship, teamwork, and respect of self and others. In line with those values, we require that every player, parent, and coach adhere to a code of conduct we can all be proud of.

Unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated in practice or in games. Foul language or berating of other players, coaches, refs, etc., will result from removal from the program. Please be aware of this zero tolerance rule.

This is a game, remember:

  • These are kids
  • All coaches are volunteers
  • The officials are humans

All of the above will make mistakes. It's how we respond to them and to each other that makes a difference.

Remind your kids to:

  • Help another player
  • Always offer assistance
  • Introduce yourself to a new player on your team
  • Be respectful of the referees
  • Say thank you to your coaches

A few DOs and DON'Ts:

  • DO cheer for your team, not just your player.
  • DON'T yell at the refs—it doesn't ever help. Let the coaches handle it.
  • DON'T coach your kid from the sideline—it gets confusing. If you want to coach, let us know! We are always looking for volunteers!
