hi thank you lilsecret for a fast response, but let me go into more depth regards my question .I need to be able to quote chapter verse as to my right to video my grandsons match because it's my grandsons amateur football coach thats told me it's either against FA. rules or illegal. I don't want to just tell him to take a hike in case he drops my grandson from the team .so i need to point out in the nicest possible way that he's mistaken.so can you see my problem; cheers

Good morning Brian. I understand your dilemma and perhaps the following may be helpful.

The FA would like to assure parents, carers, coaches,
spectators, players and local media that we encourage
the taking of appropriate images of children in football.

Have a look at this Official FA website
