CODE OF CONDUCT

Code of Conduct for Players

Players are the most important people in the sport. Playing for the team, and for the team to win, is the most fundamental part of the game, but not "win at any cost," fair play and respect for all others in the game is fundamentally important.

A player should:

• Wear their full kit on match days, ensuring all their kit and boots are clean.
• Pay all weekly subs that are due.
  • Please note that the payment of subs is not to pay for training it is to cover the running costs of the Club (i.e. league fees, payment of referees and the like).
• Make every effort to develop their own sporting abilities, in terms of skills, technique, tactics and stamina, by attending all training sessions and practising at home. Listen and learn from your Coach.
