Horsham Tigers Football Club

Respect Code of Conduct for

Youth Players.

We all have a responsibility to promote

high standards of behaviour in the

game.

As a player, you have a big part to play.

That’s why The FA is asking every

player to follow a Respect Code of

Conduct.

When playing football, I will:

• Always play to the best of my ability

• Play fairly – I won’t cheat, 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

• Shake hands with the other team

and referee at the end of the game

• Listen and respond to what my

coach/team manager tells me

• 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, County FA or The FA may

make my parent or carer aware of

any infringements of the Code

of Conduct

• The FA/County FA could impose a

fine and suspension against my club
