Code of Conduct for Parents and Spectators

All parents within the Club must agree and adhere to our Club’s Code of Conduct and Child Protection Policy.

Parents and spectators have a great influence on children’s enjoyment and success in football and will have a significant bearing on a child’s attitude towards:

• Children enjoying football
• A sense of personal achievement and self esteem
• Improving the player’s skills and techniques
• Respect towards other players, officials, managers/coaches and spectators

Parents and spectators should:

• Applaud the opposition as well as your own team
• Avoid coaching the players during the game
• Not shout and scream
• Respect the referee’s decision
• Give attention to each of the children involved in football not just the most talented
• Give encouragement to everyone to participate in football
• Always be positive and encouraging towards all of the children not just their own
