PMCJFC Player Code of Conduct

PORT MELBOURNE COLTS JUNIOR FOOTBALL CLUB

Players code of conduct

Play by the rules – the rules of your club and the laws of the game

Never argue with an umpire or other official – without these people, you can’t play football

Control your temper - verbal abuse of officials and sledging other players doesn’t help you enjoy or win any games

Be a team player – It’s a team game, treat it that way

Treat all players as you would like to be treated – fairly

Co-operate with your coach, the umpires and team-mates

Play for your own enjoyment and to improve your skills

Don’t use ugly remarks based on race, religion, gender or ability – you’ll let down your coach, team-mates and family if you do – and many such comments are actually now illegal
