Worthing FC share and encourage the FA’s Code of Respect, we believe that we all have the responsibility to promote the highest standards of behaviour. Young players have a significant role to play in this. All young players should follow this code of conduct and treat your team, other players, and match officials with Respect.

Young Players:

When playing football, I will:

• Always play my best for the benefit of the team.
• Play fairly and always show respect to everyone involved in the game.
• Play by the rules and respect the Referee. 
• Shake hands with the other team – win or lose.
• Listen carefully to what my coach tells me.
• Understand that the coach must do what is best for the team.
• Talk to someone I trust or the Club Welfare Officer if I’m unhappy about things at the club. 
• Encourage my teammates.
• Respect the facilities home and way.

I understand that if I do not follow the code, I may:

• Be asked to apologise to whoever I’ve upset.
• Receive a formal warning.
• Be dropped, substituted, or suspended from training.
• Be asked to leave the club.
