Respect Code of Conduct SPECTATORS AND PARENTS / CARERS

We all have a responsibility to promote high standards of behaviour in the game.

This club is supporting The Respect programme to ensure football can be enjoyed by everyone in a safe and positive environment.

Play your part and observe The Respect Code of Conduct for spectators and parents/carers at all times.

I will:

  Remain outside the field of play and behind the Designated Spectator Area (where provided).

  Never engage in, or tolerate, offensive, insulting or abusive language or behaviour

  Always respect the match officials’ decisions

  Applaud effort and good play as well as success.

In addition, when attending youth games I will:

  Remember that children play for FUN

  Let the coaches do their job and not confuse the players by telling them what to do

  Encourage the players to respect the opposition and match officials

  Never criticise a player for making a mistake –mistakes are part of learning.
