Player registration
The Player Registration window for the 2024-25 season WILL OPEN ON Tuesday 4TH june

or for a Norfolk FA affiliated Club in a non-Norfolk League will again need to register

For the 2024-25 season it will once again be mandatory to provide a valid, unique email address for every player in the adult game and for the parent / carer of every player in the youth game.

Privacy Policies and Player Registrations
Due to
GDPR regulations, every player will need to see a copy of the privacy policy
that relates to where their player registration data is stored. All clubs
should also have completed their own Privacy Policy which each player is shown
prior to registering to their club for the new season. The Norfolk FA
Privacy Policy and a club template Privacy Policy are available to
download at the bottom of this page. For further information
regarding the GDPR regulations please contact Muckle.
To make the registration process easier individuals who have previously been registered / associated with the Club will already be attached to your Club records on WGS. This will also mean that there may be individuals attached who are no longer part of your Club. It is your responsibility as a Club to ensure this data is accurate and up to date. If you have individuals who are no longer part of the Club still attached you should remove their records or, alternatively, send a list of these individuals to us and we can remove these records on your behalf. It is important this process is completed to ensure your Club complies with GDPR.
