The registration of players for the new season will hopefully be much easier as clubs have the bulk of player records in the system. There are a few tips to get the process off to a smooth start.
Firstly as the season ends clubs should look to detach players. The important thing to do is only do so if you know that the player is leaving. Ensure you select the
Firstly do not try and detach players from the current season
Select the?new season (e.g 2018/19)? in the filter box then select the player with the checkbox and use the detach button. Do not detach players you may think will renew.

Can clubs please be reminded that with the changes to GDPR they are not to use their own or the clubs email addresses for players if the player does not have an email address they must leave it blank on the system.

If you have already validated id?for the player then you can submit for registration from June 12th onwards
Players joining your club from another club will require an ID check by you. Search for the player by name and FAN or DOB and attach to the club then assign team and validate the id before submitting to the league. Note if the club they are leaving has not detached the player then ask them to do so.
