FA respect policy
What is respect?
Respect is the collective responsibility of everyone in football to create a fair, safe and enjoyable environment in which the game can take place. It is the behavioural code for football.
The most important message of the Respect programme is that real and lasting change will come about not through the intervention of the Football Authorities but from everyone in football taking collective responsibility to promote what is good in the game and deal with that which diminishes it.

Welfare
Safeguarding children is an integral aspect of the Respect programme.
It’s about raising awareness that bullying, verbal, emotional and physical abuse will not be tolerated in football.
From season 2010/2011 The Football Association requires all leagues and clubs with youth teams to have a named Welfare Officer.
