I will give my complete cooperation to the organization that I serve and of which I am a member.

I will cooperate with my fellow officials and will do nothing to cause them public embarrassment.

I will be firm but not overbearing, but not ingratiating; positive but never rude; dignified but never “cocky”; friendly but not companionable; calm but always alert.

I will work in a collaborative, harmonious fashion with colleagues, accepting freely comments for personal betterment, and when appropriate, provide advice to others in a discreet and constructive manner.

I will not officiate after having any alcoholic drink on the day I am scheduled to officiate.

I will not make a request to officiate a specific match.

I will not criticize or attempt to explain a fellow official’s judgment.

I will honor all assignments in spite of possible inconvenience or financial loss.

I will become familiar with and abide by my organization's media policy.

I will pursue any concerns or complaints I may have related to officiating through the appropriate officials.
