Respect the Game
On most weekends, tens of thousands of girls, boys, women and men can be found playing and officiating football matches across Victoria, watched and supported by thousands more parents, family members, club officials and volunteers.
Over time, a minority of these people have unfortunately decided that it is ok to:
- Abuse referees, both official and volunteers
- Scream and yell at players, coaches and officials
- Criticise performance rather than celebrate effort
- Ignore, manipulate and question rules and decisions
The impact this behaviour has on our game cannot be understated. People stop playing the game, referees stop officiating, tensions between clubs rise.
In order to make a genuine difference to the behaviour of everyone involved in our game, a cultural shift needs to occur. This needs to occur at all levels. We need to Respect The Game.
CCFC supports the Fair Play Code
Victorians love their sport.
There are approximately 2.2 million participants, 980,000 paid staff and volunteers, 12,000 sports clubs, and 9,500 community sports facilities in Victoria.
Victorians are involved in sport in many different capacities. Positive and appropriate actions and behaviours of each and every one of these individuals is essential to ensuring safe, fair and inclusive sporting environments.
There is simply no place for abuse, violence, cheating or any kind of bad behaviour in sport.
At the heart of the Fair Play Code are the five principles:
- Integrity
- Respect
- Responsibility
- Safety
- Fairness.
These principles apply to everyone involved in sport in Victoria, no matter what role they play.
As an individual, team, club, league or association, or organisation - if you encounter bad behaviour, either on or off the sporting field, refer to the Fair Play Code.
