FT PLAY Safety & Conduct Policy

At FT PLAY, we're committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment where everyone can enjoy casual football. Whether you're a player or an organiser, we ask that you uphold the following standards to help foster a positive experience across the community.

• Respect First: Treat teammates, opponents, organisers, and venue staff with courtesy and fairness.
• Play Fair: No aggressive behaviour, foul language, or unsporting conduct will be tolerated.

• Match Oversight: Maintain a safe playing environment — oversee game flow and respond promptly to incidents or misconduct.
• Venue & Equipment Check: Ensure pitches are safe and equipment (e.g. balls, bibs) is fit for use.
• Reporting Issues: Inform FT PLAY of any serious conduct issues at Support@ftplay.co.uk

FT PLAY reserves the right to investigate and suspend players or organisers involved in:

• Discrimination or hate speech
• Physical or verbal abuse
