Code of conduct

Great football environments are built by players, coaches and parents together, in every CFA programme.

Players

Arrive on time, in kit, ready to work. Respect coaches, team-mates, opponents and referees.

Parents

Encourage, don't instruct. Leave the coaching to the coaches and the refereeing to the referee. Cheer for every player.

Coaches

Prepare every session, treat every player fairly and keep families informed.
