RESPECT CODE OF CONDUCT – YOUTH PLAYER

 

 

When playing football, I will:

 

* Always play to the best of my ability and for the benefit of my team

​

* Play fairly – I won’t cheat, dive, complain or waste time

​

* Respect my team-mates, the other team, the referee or my coach/manager.

​

* Play by the rules, as directed by the referee

​

* Be gracious in victory and defeat – I will shake  hands with the other team and referee before  or at the end of the game

​

* Listen and respond to what my coach/team manager tells me

​

* Understand that a coach has to do what is best for the team and not one individual player 

​

* Talk to someone I trust or the club welfare officer if I’m unhappy about anything at my club.

​

I understand that if I do not follow the Code, any/all of the following actions may be taken by my club, County  FA or The FA:

 

I may:

​

* Be required to apologise to my team-mates, the other team, referee or team manager

 

* Receive a formal warning from the coach or the club committee

 

* Be dropped or substituted 

 

* Be suspended from training 

 

* Be required to leave the club

 

In addition:

​

* My club, may make my parent or carer aware  of any infringements of the Code of Conduct
