When and how do we register players?

Q: When and how do we register players?

Under SAFA Competitions Uniform Rule 14: Registration periods Football Main registration Window Men's September and October February Women's February and March July and August For each player, submit: the registration form from the team's allocated registration book an original passport or ID (certified copy of the ID) the player's transfer or clearance certificate a completed medical report three recent colour passport-sized photos any contract between the club and the player Deadlines: forms go in within five days of the player signing, at SAFA's offices during working hours. The card is issued on the fifth working day after submission. Numbers and fees: the entry fee covers the first 22 players; further players must be paid for before they're processed. Foreign players: at Regional level and above, no more than three may be registered. At LFA level any number may be registered, but the team then can't be promoted (Rule 12). Your responsibility: the club must make sure all information is accurate. Submitting false information or fielding an improperly registered player is an offence, and the issue of a card doesn't remove that responsibility.
