The FA’s Grassroots Code is a national behaviour standard designed to unite participants and to create safer, more respectful and more enjoyable environments. This is done by setting out five simple Standards of Behaviour: Enjoy the Game, Give Respect, Be Inclusive, Work Together, and Play Safe. These standards apply to players, coaches, parents, spectators and volunteers, helping clubs build consistent culture and expectations across every team.

The Grassroots Code

The Grassroots Code is here to help make behaviour better in football. Replacing the previous Code of Conduct, it’s designed to unite everyone across grassroots football by encouraging positive behaviour we can all get behind.

The Grassroots Code sets out the standards everyone expects to see across the grassroots game, including at your own club. It includes the following Standards of Behaviour which, if adopted, will ensure a positive environment for all.

Together these Standards of Behaviour promote a positive, inclusive and respectful football experience for everyone. One in which your club can take pride in. One which makes even the strongest football clubs stronger.
