RESPECT. WITHOUT IT, THE GAME IS NOT BEAUTIFUL…

Respect is The FA’s response to a clear message from throughout the game, that the health of football depends upon high standards of behaviour on and off the pitch.

As an England Football Accredited Club, we’re proud to champion the Respect campaign and believe all those involved in football (no matter what role they play) have a responsibility, above and beyond compliance with the law, to act according to the highest standards of integrity, and to ensure that the reputation of the game is, and remains, high.

  • Respect is a behavioural code for Football
  • Respect is about recognising that the integrity of the game is more important than the result of the match
  • Respect is For ALL and plays a key part in uniting the game
  • Respect is about creating an understanding of what is acceptable and unacceptable behaviour in Football
  • Respect is about those involved taking responsibility for the consequences of their own actions
  • Respect is about supporting match officials to do their job.
  • Respect is not a slogan. It is a collective responsibility of those involved in football to create a safe, fun and inclusive environment in which the game can take place.

The following Respect Codes of Conduct outline the types of behaviour that will support a safe, fun and inclusive game in this country. They also identify a range of sanctions that may be taken if these codes are not abided by.
