At Cranleigh FC, we are committed to creating a positive and supportive environment for our young players. To ensure the well-being of all involved, we kindly remind all adults – parents, guardians, coaches, and volunteers – to adhere to the Grassroots Code for Adults in Youth Football.

This code emphasises the importance of:

  • Positive Attitudes: Arriving at training and matches with a constructive mindset, prioritising the well-being of children over the outcome of the game.

  • Respectful Behaviour: Using positive language, refraining from arguing with officials, and encouraging good sportsmanship among players.

  • Inclusivity: Demonstrating zero tolerance for discrimination and ensuring fair playing time for all children.

  • Safeguarding: Being aware of appropriate boundaries, understanding roles of trust, and reporting any concerns to the Club Welfare Officer.

  • Team Support: Encouraging players, celebrating their efforts, and avoiding criticism when mistakes occur.

By embodying these principles, we contribute to a safe and enjoyable football experience for everyone. For a comprehensive overview, please refer to the full code here: Grassroots Code for Adults in Youth Football.

Thank you for your continued support in making Cranleigh FC a welcoming and respectful community.
