Good on Tom.
Indicative of society where it only seems authority is happy when it's wringing the joy out of everything.
Nothing I enjoy better than seeing a pumped up Poulter hole a put, usain Bolt firing an arrow etc.
If he was doing it after every goal, maybe so, but as said, after a wonder goal, enjoy the moment son, you only got one go at this life.

Substituting the player seems fair 'punishment'. Have a word with him after the game and before the next game, just to enforce that they don't want to promote that kind of behaviour. Making an 8 year old sit out the whole next game for over-celebrating seems pretty absurd. Sure if they hit someone or swear at the ref or something, being sub for the next game or missing it seems fine, but not for this.
exactly this!

FA is moving to non competitive, no league table, small sided games up to U12 anyway
What a load of nonsense. Life is competitive, and makes a sport much more fun.
I used to hold exactly this view. However, having witnessed at first hand what the FA are trying to achieve, I am now convinced that at this age a non-competitive structure provides a much better environment for young players to develop their skills and reach their full potential. It might not seem as much fun for the competitive parents but it definitely benefits the kids.

I think as manager I would force the kid to do my shopping for a week.

If it was me Tom would have been quietly subbed and be playing in goal next week, at that age they should be rotating positions weekly anyway.
I've managed a team from U8 to currently U15. I'm not a coach, don't have any badges, I'm just a Dad who facilitates a bunch of kids having fun. When they were U9/U10 I thought the FA were completely wrong with their plans. Like sharky, having seen the plans in action I think they're got it just about right.

Really is nothing wrong with celebrating a worldly when that age, let them enjoy the moment. Its not like they went up to the other team rubbing it in. Millions of other things to worry about with kids football than celebrating.

Also fwiw I think at any age scoring a goal that is something a bit special (whether that be your best player beating 5 men and putting it away or some little left-back scoring the first goal of his life) there's got to be an element of common sense whereby you just let a bit of over-celebration go. It's when you're 11-0 up and over-celebrating tap-ins something needs to be done. I guess that manager has to make a judgement call if the player is really excited about his goal or just being cocky and a bit disrespectful. I can't imagine there are too many 8 year olds who are concious of it though, so a gentle nudge in the right direction as opposed to a 1-game ban, which could really upset a young kid, seems appropriate.

In my opinion, the order of priorities for kids playing football goes;
fun > respect > skill development > results
With that in mind, celebrations and expressing your love of the game should be actively encouraged. Gloating after scoring is not on but a wee dance is the least the lad deserves!
In saying that, the coach seems to have set out rules that (for better or worse) are well intentioned and must be adhered to.
Just let kids be kids I say.

I think the coach did think he was rubbing it in, that's why he was so cross.
Probably was an over reaction - but I could see where he was coming from.

In our school football team it was stated that anyway who got booked, sent off or over celebrated goals would never play in the team again. Not one person got booked, sent off or took the piss celebrating goals in 5 years. We won pretty much everything we could.
Its good to teach kids to not act like dicks in my opinion.

As a Qualified Ref, and A level 3 FA Coach to an u8 team and u11 team, Varied views, the boy should be able to celebrate at that age, the Fa are getting so strict on The Respect rule, Children should be able to react with a goal celebration at that age group, and to stop a child playing football is a no no for me.
