HGSC Young 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.
  • 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 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 Additition:

    • 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.
