Respect is The FA’s programme
to address unacceptable behaviour in football – on and off the
pitch.
On average, 7,000 referees quit football every year at because of
the abuse they receive from players and from the sidelines. Lots of
children also pack it in because of the attitude and actions of
over-enthusiastic and pushy parents.
In response, The FA’s Respect programme provides a series of tools
for leagues, clubs, coaches, Referees, players and parents from
grassroots to elite football to ensure a safe, positive environment
in which to enjoy the game.
These tools include agreed codes of conduct, in-service training for
Referees, Respect club packs, spectator sideline barriers funded by
the Football Foundation and ensuring captains work with referees to
manage player behaviour.
The FA has also launched a free online Respect Parent Guide to
highlight examples of poor behaviour and, more importantly, how it
can be improved.
