 Accept and observe the authority and decisions of Match Officials and rugby disciplinary bodies, and not abuse, threaten or intimidate them whether on or off the field of play

 Not engage in any conduct or any activity that may impair public confidence in the honest and orderly conduct of a Match or in the integrity and good character of any Person

 Not use crude or abusive language or gestures towards Match Officials, opposing players or spectators

 At all times promote the reputation of the Game and take all possible steps to prevent it from being brought into disrepute
