Sport is fun for everyone when we all agree on what we will and won’t do while we’re playing. Keep these points in mind when you’re getting in the game. I will… ☑ Respect officials’ and coaches’ decisions ☑ Promote fair play over winning at all costs ☑ Thank players, coaches and officials ☑ Encourage and support others ☑ Act within the rules and spirit of the game I won’t… ❎ Be disrespectful ❎ Criticise or ridicule anyone’s performance ❎ Be dishonest or show unsporting behaviour ❎ Lose control of my emotions ❎ Use bad language or harass or abuse anyone #InclusiveSafeAndFairSport #CommunitySport #PlaybyTheRules
