Remember that players participate for pleasure and enjoyment and that winning is only one part of the fun of the Futsal experience. It may not be as necessary to emphasize winning as to 'decriminalize' losing. Learning to lose gracefully is one of the learning experiences of Futsal.

Operate within the rules and spirit of soccer football and teach your players respect for rules and authority by word and example.

Be reasonable in your demands on players' time, energy and enthusiasm; remember that unreasonable demands rarely bear fruit.

Ensuring players spend time with you is a positive experience; all players deserve equal attention and opportunity.

Avoid overplaying the talented players; the just-average need and deserve equal.

Ensure that equipment and facilities meet safety standards and are appropriate to the age and ability of all players.

Display control, respect and professionalism to all futsal members– opponents, coaches, officials, administrators, the media, parents and spectators – and encourage players to do the same.

Show concern and caution toward sick and injured players.Follow the physician's advice when determining whether an injured player is ready to recommence training or competition – do not let injured players compete for their own well-being.

Be positive in your approach to players – avoid harsh criticism or ridicule. Respect the rights, dignity and worth of every player regardless of the player's gender, ability, religion or cultural background.

Obtain appropriate qualifications and keep up to date with the latest coaching practices and the principles of growth and development of young persons.

Instil in players the importance of making an honest effort and developing skills as much as possible; encourage the development of basic Futsal skills if involved in coaching young players.

Restrict any physical contact with players that is appropriate to the situation and necessary for the player's skill development.

Support every effort to rid the sport of football of verbal and physical abuse.
