The FIFA Fair Play Award is given to the team with the best record of Fair Play, sport smanship and good conduct both on and off the pitch, according to a points system and criteria established by the FIFA Committee for Ethics and Fair Play.
Every single game at the tournament is evaluated
according to these criteria, but only teams which reach the Round
of 16 are considered eligible for the prize.
The squads will share
the prestigious FIFA Fair Play Trophy, plus receive medals for each
member of its playing and coaching staff, a certificate, and a
voucher for 50,000 US dollars worth of sporting material to be used
in youth development.
The evaluation is carried out according to
six criteria which place an emphasis on the positive rather than
the negative aspects of a team’s performance.
The number of cards a team receives is the only way that points can be deducted. The other criteria taken into consideration are: Positive Play, with points awarded for an attractive, offensive- minded playing style; respect for opponents; respect for the officials; Behaviour of the coaching staff and the Behaviour of supporters.
