Following confirmation from the league that we are a suitable match for your club, submit a full application on the
EEYFL Club Registration System. Only one person per Club should be responsible for the Club Registration / Renewal. This is usually the Club Secretary but for larger clubs, this can also be a different person nominated by the club to be the person responsible for all matters relating to EEYFL. This is the person to whom all league communications will be sent and we refer to that person as the EEYFL Club Secretary, and he/she should be the person who registers as the Registration Owner on the Club Registration System.

After your application is approved, you will need to sign in

PLAYER REGISTRATIONS / RENEWALS
EEYFL is active on The FA's Whole Game System
(WGS). All players must be entered on the FA's Club Portal System and approved by the league before playing fixtures.
The FA's Club Portal System is generally available for the next season in June. Before you register / renew your players you are responsible for ensuring your Club, Teams and Officials are set up correctly on the Club Portal System with your County FA.
Your Club's Player Registration Officer(s) (setup by your Club), can then
sign in to the Club Portal System and register or renew players. The following is required for each player:
- Full name and date of birth is first used to search if the player already exists in WGS. If so, they may be attached to another Club / Team.
- Passport style photo (appears on Squad List).
- Proof of date of birth (verification that passport or birth certificate has been checked - random requests for proof of date of birth may be undertaken throughout the season).
- Offline consent from the parent to submit player's data (or can be done via the Club Portal if parent email entered).
- Confirmation that the player is an English qualified player (i.e. has not played outside England since the age of 10) and does not require International Clearance.
- Assign players to teams.
- A FAN number is automatically generated for newly registered players.
- Once the season has started, any new player must be submitted to the league for approval by before 10pm on Thursday to be eligible for that weekend’s fixtures.
- There is no email notification once approved, so you will need to check periodically if the league has approved the player(s).
If you have any general questions regarding player registrations, email The FA's Player Registration Support. For player specific enquiries regarding league approvals or rejections, email the
League's WGS Support.
Each Team must have the following number of Players registered by 1 August before the start of each playing season:
- 5v5: 5 minimum
- 7v7: 7 minimum
- 9v9: 9 minimum
- 11v11: 11 minimum
Any team with fewer players registered than the minimum will be fined £3 per player short (max £25 per team).
Transfer of players is carried out using the standard process within the FA Club Portal .
