Woking Cougars FC
Code of Conduct
Parents and
Spectators Code of Conduct
Woking Cougars will endeavour to maximise the safety,
development, confidence, and enjoyment of all club members.
The club believes that it is important that all parents and
supporters set a proper example of behaviour for young players to
follow by:-
> Learning the laws of Association
football – you will then appreciate how
difficult interpretation can be. Do not enter
the field of play unless invited to do so by
the referee.
> Never using foul
or abusive language - do not shout abuse at match
officials, players or other
spectators.
> Never taking the law into your own
hands - let the club team manager deal
with any problems that may
arise.
> Never being drawn into disputes - do not
become involved in an argument or
dispute with
match officials, players or other spectators.
>
Setting a good example to young players - your conduct and
attitude can be
copied by
them.
> Recognising good sporting behaviour
- show that you appreciate
sportsmanship on the field.
>
Appreciating good football - show that you appreciate good
football by either
team. Never scold a child
for making a mistake during a game.
> Considering
others - even if exited by the game yourself, remember and
consider other spectators young and old.
Always display courtesy and consideration to
players and spectators from other teams. Do not leave everything to
the manager; offer to help whenever you
can.
> Remembering walls have ears - remarks you
may make, even in the dressing
room could be
detrimental to your club.
> Remembering youth
football is a game of enjoyment for boys and girls
-
support the boys and girls in a
manner which will maintain the high reputation
that the club has acquired for sporting
behaviour. Never force an unwilling child to
participate in football against their will.
