The Player's Code:

 Play for the fun of it, not just to please your parents.

 Play by the rules. Never argue with or complain about the referees' calls or decisions.

Control your temper and most of all resist the temptation to retaliate when you feel you have been wronged.

Concentrate on playing soccer and on affecting the outcome of the game with your best effort. Work equally hard for your team as for yourself.

Be a good sport by cheering all good plays, whether it is your teams or your opponent's. Treat all players as you would like to be treated.

Remember that the goals of the game are to have fun, improve your skills and feel good. Don't be a showoff or a ball hog.

Cooperate with your coaches, teammates and opponents and the referees.
