International Clearance

All players over the age of 10 who are not born in England, have not previously applied for a international clearance certificate, and wish to register for the Club, need to complete the International Clearance forms, and provide the requisite documentation. All completed forms and documentation need to be sent to clubsecretary@twyfordcomets.com so that they can be signed and forwarded on to the FA.

The EBFA is extremely strict on these being processed, and therefore they need to be completed as soon as possible, as the process takes a while.
