4. Respect

Like most grassroots football clubs, we strongly believe in ‘Respect’ for everyone involved in the
game, especially the referee. As a club, we promote the development of young referees and support
them as they gain confidence after completing their qualifications. We ask that all visitors respect
the referee—young or old, male or female. Without their willingness to officiate, we would not be
able to play. Please encourage the efforts of both teams and help create a fun, friendly atmosphere
that allows all players to perform at their best.
