Anti-Discrimination Policy
Liss Athletic Football Club Youth Section is responsible for setting standards and
values to apply throughout the Club at every level. Football belongs to and should
be enjoyed by everyone equally. Our commitment is to confront and eliminate discrimination
whether by reason of sex, sexual orientation, race, nationality, ethnic origin,
colour, religion or disability.
Equality of opportunity at Liss Athletic Football Club means that in all of our
activities we will not discriminate or in any way treat anyone less favourably,
on grounds of sex, sexual orientation1 race, nationality, ethnic origin, colour,
religion or disability.
This includes:
- The advertisement for volunteers.
- The selection of candidates for volunteers.
- Courses.
- External coaching and education activities and awards.
- Football development activities.
- Selection for teams.
- Appointment to honorary positions.
Liss Athletic Football Club will not tolerate sexual or racially based harassment
or other discriminatory behaviour, whether physical or verbal and will work to ensure
that such behaviour is met with appropriate action in whatever context it occurs.
Liss Athletic Football Club is committed to the development of ongoing training
and awareness raising events and activities in order to promote the eradication
of discrimination within its own organisation and in the wider context, within football
as a whole.
