  3. The squads are managed fairly and give equal opportunity for all members to particpate equally in matches throughout the course of the season.

  4. We will actively discourage barriers and divisions forming within the club and will not tolerate player selection or parent pressure and expectations over their ability.

  5. Parents, coaches and supporters are encouraged to praise effort and attitude and not simply winning results or goal scoring achievements.

  7. The club is ultimately a local football club and we will enjoy our moments of success however we will not base our coaching style and player involvement on winning alone.
