Melrose Youth Soccer Code of Conduct

(Adapted from Middlesex League Code of Conduct)

Melrose Youth Soccer (MYS) is committed to providing a positive soccer experience through practice, play and teamwork.  Our goal is to be inclusive to the entire community and to provide each child with an opportunity to play the game at the appropriate level and develop technical and tactical skills, a sense of team spirit, leadership qualities, and sportsmanship.  Coaches should also be extended the same benefits of the program, and receive an opportunity to further develop their own skills as well as act as a responsible role model for players.  To achieve these goals, MYS has established a Code of Conduct for players, parents/guardians and coaches. MYS reserves the right to dismiss a player or coach who does not comply with the Code of Conduct.


The Massachusetts Youth Soccer Association Board of Directors approved the implementation of Codes of Conduct for Coaches, Parents, Players and Referees and a Zero Tolerance Policy by unanimous consent in January 2023. 

The Mass Youth Soccer Codes of Contact and Zero Tolerance Policy were developed over a number of months of consultation and collaboration with League and Member Organization leaders, Massachusetts State Referee Committee and other State Associations utilizing best practices from other Leagues, States and US Soccer appropriate for our programs.

The adoption of the Codes of Conduct and Zero Tolerance Policy linked below is a requirement for all member organizations effective February 1, 2023. 

Additions have been made to Mass Youth Soccer’s existing required registration language detailing that the registrant has read, understands and agrees to uphold the Mass Youth Soccer Codes of Conduct and Zero Tolerance Policy. 

Codes of Conduct - Please Take the Time to Read Each Thoroughly


***All families, including coaches, players and family members, agree to the terms of this code of conduct by registering a child for any MYS program and/or participating in a MYS program or activity.
