EHWSL Code of Conduct and Sportsmanship Policy
The East Hudson Women’s Soccer League is committed to creating a safe, positive, and respectful environment for every player, coach, official, and spectator. Every participant is expected to uphold the highest standards of sportsmanship and fair play, both on and off the field.
Respect for Officials
Our referees are essential to the game. Their decisions are final. Players, coaches, and spectators must treat officials with courtesy and respect at all times. Arguing calls, verbal abuse, intimidation, or any form of harassment directed at an official will not be tolerated. Questions about a call should be raised calmly and only by the team captain at an appropriate stoppage in play.
Respect for Others
All players are expected to respect teammates, opponents, coaches, and spectators, regardless of skill level, age, or experience.
Zero-Tolerance Policy
The EHWSL maintains a zero-tolerance policy for the following:
Disrespect, abuse, or harassment of officials, players, coaches, or spectators
Profanity or offensive language
Taunting, trash talk, or unsportsmanlike gestures
Reckless, dangerous, or violent play that puts player safety at risk
Fighting or threatening behavior of any kind
Any conduct detrimental to the league, its members, or the game
Player Safety
The safety of every player comes first. Play must be controlled and fair. Dangerous tackles, intentional fouls, and reckless challenges have no place in our league.
Enforcement
Violations may result in cards, ejection from the match, suspension, or removal from the league, at the discretion of the officials and the EHWSL Executive Board. Players are responsible for their own conduct and for helping maintain a positive atmosphere for everyone.
