Respect Code of Conduct – Spectators

If we behave positively during practice and matches, our children will too!

By setting a good example, we’ll help build a supportive environment in which everyone can enjoy themselves.

Play your part and support The FA’s Code of Respect:

  • Have fun; it’s what we’re all here for!
  • Celebrate effort and good play from both sides
  • Always respect the Referee and coaches and encourage players to do the same
  • Stay behind the touchline 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
  • When players make mistakes, offer them encouragement to try again next time
  • Never engage in, or tolerate, offensive, insulting, or abusive language or behaviour

 

I understand that if I do not follow the Code I may be:

  • Issued with a verbal warning or asked to leave
  • Required to meet with the club committee, league or CFA Welfare Officer
  • Obliged to undertake and FA education course
  • Requested not to attend future games, be suspended or have my membership removed
  • Required to leave the club along with any dependents and/or issued a fine
