Player’s Code of Behaviour

September 11, 2007 | Filed Under Juniors, Seniors, Teams

Every sporting club abides by a code of behaviour, and the Fulham Cricket Club is no exception. Player’s should be aware of and adhere to the following sportsmanship behaviour.

  • Play by the rules.
  • Never argue with an official. If you disagree, ask your Captain, Coach or Manager to approach the official during a break or after the competition.
  • Control your temper. Verbal abuse of officials or other players or deliberately distracting or provoking an opponent is not acceptable or permitted.
  • Work equally hard for yourself and your team. Your team’s performance will benefit and so will you.
  • Be a good sport. Applaud all good plays by your own team and the opposition.
  • Treat all players as you would like to be treated yourself. Do not interfere with, bully or take unfair advantage of another player.
  • Co-operate with your coach, team-mates and opponents. Without them there would be no competition.
  • Place isolated incidents of unsporting behaviour in their proper perspective. Do not make such incidents the “highlight” of an event.
