- Under 6s do not need to be registered with a league as they do not play in league organised matches.
- Team managers must ensure ALL players are registered and licenced via the club secretary.
- The club pays any fees for the player’s league registration and licence.
- U12 – U16 players need to complete an FA Wales registration form
