The Football Association's 'Respect' programme

"Respect" is the Football Association's programme to "...combat unacceptable behaviour in our game at every level - on the pitch and from the sidelines."

Thr Respect programme includes four practical steps to immprove behaviour on and off the pitch:

1. Codes of conduct for players, parents, spectators, coaches and referees
2. Designated spectator areas
3. Captain's responsibility for player behaviour
4. Referees managing the game and applying the laws of the game
