Code of Conduct for Hurstpierpoint Football Club Supporters Once our club has addressed the conduct of its players it will be able to set an appropriate example to its supporters in terms of their behaviour. The supporters are an organic component of a football game. The support of the supporters will contribute to the success of the team. The supporters are not expected to watch the game in silence. Encouragement of the teams by shouting, non-abusive singing, etc. may have a positive influence on the atmosphere in accordance with the spirit of Fair Play. The spectators are, however, expected to respect the opponents and the referee. They should appreciate the performance of the opposition even if they emerge as winners. They should in no way intimidate or frighten opponents, the referee or opposing supporters. At all times the supporters shall be encouraged to comply with the club’s position on Discrimination and Unacceptable Conduct. Note: Hurstpierpoint Walking Football Clubs committee reserves the right to refuse and/or terminate membership of any player not complying with club's Code of Conduct
