Most children and young people have a fantastic experience through football – but sadly, some don't.
This might be down to over-competitive parents, or coaches shouting and constantly criticising from the sidelines. Or it might be due to some other kind of abusive behaviour.
The Jersey FA wants local children to know there are many organisations, on and off island, offering support for those affected or needing someone to talk to about a safeguarding issue. This page highlights some of them...
