Code of Ethics
Ever since the AFCA formulated its first formal Code of Ethics in 1952, the organization has had a keen awareness of its importance and has done all in its power to keep the public aware of the AFCA's concern with morality and integrity.
A complete copy of the Code of Ethics is published every year in the AFCA Directory that is sent to every member. Vital tenets include:
PREAMBLE:
The distinguishing characteristic of a profession is its dedication to the service of humanity.
Those who select football coaching must understand that the justification for football lies in its spiritual and physical values and that the game belongs, essentially, to the players.
The welfare of the game depends on how the coaches live up to the spirit and letter of ethical conduct and how the coaches remain ever mindful of the high trust and confidence placed in them by their players and the public.
Coaches unwilling or unable to comply with the principles of the Code have no place in the profession.
The Code should be studied regularly by all coaches and its principles should always be followed. Violations of the Code should be reported to the Ethics Committee.
PURPOSE:
The Code of Ethics has been developed to protect and promote the best interests of the game and the coaching profession. Its primary purpose is to clarify and distinguish ethical and approved professional practices from those considered detrimental.
Its secondary purpose is to emphasize the purpose and value of football and to stress the proper functions of coaches in relation to schools, players, and the public.
