player conduct
Sportsmanship on field
Player conduct refers to behavior and sportsmanship in competitive settings—how athletes, gamers, or participants carry themselves during play.
The phrase appears in rulebooks, codes of ethics, and disciplinary discussions: The league fined him for player conduct violations.
Poor player conduct includes unsportsmanlike behavior, cheating, or abuse of officials; good conduct means playing fair and respecting opponents.
