CJSL Silent Support Weekend !
April 25–26, 2026 | All Games, All Age Groups
CJSL will be implementing its first Silent Support Weekend across all matches as part of our continued focus on building a stronger community and culture around the game. The goal is simple—reduce sideline noise so players can think, make decisions, communicate, and enjoy the game in a more positive environment.
For this weekend:
👏 Applause and positive encouragement only
🗣️ No shouting or sideline coaching during play
⚽ Allow players to play, lead, and learn
This initiative is not new. It has been successfully implemented in youth leagues across the country and internationally, including programs run by English FA and leagues such as the West Side Soccer League. These efforts have consistently shown improvements in player confidence, decision-making, and overall game experience.
Matches will be monitored by referees, with any sideline issues handled through standard league procedures. Clubs are expected to ensure that coaches, parents, and spectators understand and support these expectations.
Let them play. Let them learn. Let them enjoy the game.
