Respect
Respect The Standard and make football better for everyone.

The Grassroots Code includes Standards of Behaviour which ensure a positive football environment for all. They’re very clear, so everyone can understand and remember them:
- Enjoy The Game – we’re here to enjoy ourselves… win, lose or draw.
- Give Respect – we always treat others as we’d like to be treated.
- Be Inclusive – we embrace our differences… football is a game for everyone.
- Work Together – we’re a team, on and off the pitch.
- Play Safe – we all have a role in safeguarding young people and vulnerable adults.
Together, these Standards of Behaviour promote a positive, inclusive and respectful football experience for everyone.
