For players, refs, managers, and spectators
Last updated: 23 May 2026
KAFCON is a celebration of African football and community in Korea. Everyone on the pitch and on the sidelines is expected to keep it that way. These rules apply on the website, at the venue, and on the KAFCON social channels.
No discrimination — race, nation, gender, faith, language, age, ability. African and Korean diaspora communities both call this tournament home, and visitors are welcome. Slurs, gestures, or chants targeting any group end your day.
Accept the referee's decisions. Persistent dissent earns a card, and serious dissent ends a match. Violence on or around the pitch ends a team's tournament — no second chances.
Players must hold roots in the nation they represent and currently reside in Korea. Falsified squads forfeit the relevant match and may forfeit the edition. If you're unsure, ask the organisers before kick-off, not after.
The Pyeongtaek pitches host us at cost. Take your rubbish with you, respect the kit and equipment, keep the dressing rooms clean. Damage caused by a team is the team's bill.
Match days are photographed and filmed for KAFCON's editorial and promotional use. By attending you agree to appear in this footage. If you want a specific image taken down, ask the organisers.
If you experience or witness something out of line, tell the organisers (any ADMIN at the venue, or any ref in the green vest) immediately. We act on every report, and we keep reporters' identities confidential where we can.
