Internet Safety

As members of Leicester Warriors here are some tips to ensure you remain safe and professional when using social media and messaging apps:

• Be positive and respectful, and always take the high road
• When disagreeing with others’ opinions, remain appropriate and polite.
• Do not post content that would harm or damage the Club’s reputation.
• Remember that even while you are on your own personal time, you are a representative of the Club, and people may interpret your online postings or social interactions as though they were official Leicester Warriors statements.
• Use good judgment when posting comments. If you are unsure whether a comment is appropriate to post, do not post it.
• Be smart about what you publish. Once something is posted, it exists online forever.
