CORINTHIAN-CASUALS FC SUPPORTERS' CHARTER

Corinthian-Casuals Football Club (“The Club”) recognises the special relationship between the Club and its supporters. It also recognises and respects the invaluable contribution that supporters and volunteers make to the life of the Club. Since its formation in 1882, the club has been run entirely by volunteer members and remains proud of its rich history and traditions. As such, the Members’ Committee will make every effort to ensure that supporters are provided with a responsible role in the affairs of the Club and will ensure that its policies and practices are open, accessible and communicated as effectively as possible with its supporters.

It is our goal to encourage trust and communication between everyone involved in the club and to create a positive 'working together' attitude which will make the football club stronger.

The Club is committed to providing an enjoyable experience for all our supporters and visitors and is also committed to confront and eliminate discrimination whether by reason of age, gender, creed or religion, colour, race, disability, sexual orientation or ethnic or national origin. It is our aim to be fully accessible and inclusive and we encourage supporters to embrace these principles.

Together, we will endeavour to provide a safe and trouble-free environment for all spectators and provide a friendly, welcoming service from turnstile and bar staff, catering outlets, stewards and all other volunteers employed on match days.

In return, spectators are asked to abide by the Code of Conduct (see below). The Club is obliged to advise any spectators that failure to comply with this request may result in the person, or persons, being removed and banned from the ground and/or reported to the police.

The Members’ Committee will consult supporters on a regular basis through a series of fan forum meetings and the formation of a Supporters’ Association, which will meet regularly throughout the season to promote communication and feedback between the Club and its supporter base. Supporters are encouraged to put forward ideas that improve the match day atmosphere and environment. 

The Club also recognises that it holds a special position within the local community and has a responsibility to enhance the image and reputation of the club within the community which it serves, as well as to initiate and promote community-based schemes and activities.

The Club will fully comply with all data protection regulations in terms of how it stores and uses its supporters’ personal information.

Thank you for your support!
