Fan of Conduct in the Far East

The University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) which governs collegiate sports in the country has developed a fan code of conduct.

The code underlines courtesy toward fans but also exhorts fans to stay only in their ticketed seats, “avoid disruptive behavior, including foul or abusive language or obscene gestures (i.e., fighting, taunting, or engaging in any action that may harm, endanger, threaten, or bring discomfort to anyone in the stadium).” Fans will be warned first, then ejected from the facility if they repeat the misdemeanor.

“Fans carrying signs or wearing clothing with obscene, derogatory or indecent messages will be requested to discard said sign/wear the shirt inside-out. “Fans cannot bring dangerous objects within the facility.

Fans observed to be under the influence of a prohibitive substance (i.e., alcoholic beverage, dangerous drug, etc.)” will be attended to in a prompt and safe manner by facility or security personnel.
