| National Registration Regulations |
updated March 2, 2007 |
Football Federation Australia (FFA) have introduced new National Regulations to govern the game in Australia. The FFA have implemented the FIFA-approved National Regulations effective from the 1st of January 2007.
The new regulations are the result of extensive consultation with State & Territory federations and representatives from zone/district and club levels and will provide a uniform framework to govern the game at all levels across Australia ensuring fairness, respect and protection for players, referees and coaches.
“For too long, this sport has been fractured with local committees, mostly with the best of intentions, developing their own regulations. The need to assist volunteers and ease tasks required of them is also recognised by FFA, " (said John O’Neill, ex FFA Chief Executive Officer on 3rd August 2006).
“These new national regulations will provide the framework for all clubs and districts to administer the game correctly. The national regulations will bring football in Australia into line with FIFA and common worldwide practices“.
An important aspect of the new Regulations is to provide for a National Player Registration Scheme, in line with FIFA regulations, which will require all players to register with the FFA as well as their club from 2007.
Please note: it is compulsory for all clubs & players to be registered with the FFA before they can commence playing in competitions in 2007. |
