Play for enjoyment and become part of the rugby family. Respect the "Game of Rugby" and play within the laws of the Game. Accept the referee's decision and let your captain or coach ask any relevant questions. Play with control. Do not lose your temper. Always do your best and be committed to the game, your team and your club. Be a "good sport". Applaud all good play whether by your team or the opposition. Respect your opponent. Treat all players as you would like to be treated. Do not "bully" or take advantage of any player.

13 IRFU code of conduct for players
Rugby is a team sport and make sure you co-operate with your coach; team mates and members of your club. Remember that the goals of the game are to have fun, improve your skills and feel good. At the end of the match thank your opponents and the referee for the match. Always remember that you owe a duty of care to your opponents. Tackle hard but fairly, do not intend to hurt your opponent. Winning and losing is part of sport: Win with humility - lose with dignity. As part of the team it is important that you attend training regularly and listen to your coach and help your team. As a team sport it is important to understand that all members are important to the team! Remember you are representing your team, club, family and the Game of Rugby.

14 IRFU Code of conduct for parents
Remember, young people play rugby for their enjoyment, not only yours. Encourage your child always to play by the Laws of the Game. Teach young children that honest endeavour is as important as winning, so that the result of each game is accepted without disappointment. Help young people to work towards skill improvement and good sportsmanship. Set a good example by applauding good play on both sides. Never ridicule, humiliate or shout at young players for making a mistake or losing a match. Do not place emphasis on winning at all costs. Do not force an unwilling child to participate in the playing of rugby. If the child is to play, he/she will do so in good time through your encouragement.

15 IRFU Code of conduct for parents
Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from rugby. As a spectator do not use profane language or harass referees, coaches or players. Do not publicly question the referees' judgement and never their honesty. Recognise the value and importance of volunteer referees and coaches. Identify and acknowledge the good qualities of the Game of Rugby and uphold these values. Remember you and your child's contribution to the Game of Rugby is very important to the IRFU and be proud of your contribution. Understand the value of team sport and the importance there of.
