Football is about having fun, being with friends, making new ones, playing games, trying new skills and being part of a team, if you want.
It should be fun to do all of these things - having fun is what is important.
Sometimes adults get it wrong and do things which hurt, frighten or worry children. It doesn't happen often in football, but it does happen.
If a child is worried about the way an adult is behaving towards them, they feel threatened or frightened it's important they know who to tell and how to get help.
What they are experiencing might be child abuse.
