Code of Conduct for Spectators and Parents/Carers
We all have a responsibility to promote high standards of behaviour in the game.
This club is supporting The FA’s Respect programme to ensure football can be enjoyed in a safe, positive environment.
Remember children’s football is a time for them to develop their technical, physical, tactical and social skills.Winning isn’t everything.
Play your part and observe The FA’s Respect Code of Conduct for spectators and parents/carers at all times.
I will: · Remember that children play for FUN · Applaud effort and good play as well as success · Always respect the match officials’ decisions · Remain outside the field of play and within the Designated Spectators’ Area (where provided) · Let the coach do their job and not confuse the players by telling them what to do · Encourage the players to respect the opposition, referee and match officials · Avoid criticising a player for making a mistake – mistakes are part of learning · Never engage in, or tolerate, offensive, insulting, or abusive language or behaviour.
I understand that if I do not follow the Code, any/all of the following actions may be taken by my club, County FA, league or The FA. I may be: · Issued with a verbal warning from a club or league official · Required to meet with the club, league or County FA Welfare Officer · Required to meet with the club committee · Obliged to undertake an FA education course · Obliged to leave the match venue by the club · Requested by the club not to attend future games · Suspended or have my club membership removed · Required to leave the club along with any dependents.
