Players Code of Conduct

It is a privilege to be a player for the Virginia Soccer Association. I understand I must follow the rules written below to remain a player in good standing with the club and in league play:

• I will respect the game of soccer and its laws.

• I will learn these laws and try to follow them.

• I will play the game fairly.

• I will show respect for the authority of the referee, even though I will sometimes disagree with his/her calls.

• I will show good sportsmanship before, during, and after games.

• I understand that soccer is a game, and that the players on the other team are my opponents, not my enemies.

• I understand that dissent toward my teammates, coach, opponents and referees is not permitted as a member of VSA.
