UCL Handbook 2019 2020 New Updated

CANCELLATIONS Where a Club cancels the registration of a Contract Player, for any reason whatsoever, the Club must notify the Registration Secretary and The FA immediately, in writing or on the relevant Competition/FA form. To be valid such notification must be signed by an authorised signatory of that Club and the Player. Where a Club cancels the registration of a Non-Contract Player for any reason whatsoever, the Club must notify the Competition Secretary immediately, in writing or on the relevant Competition form. To be valid, such notification must be signed by an authorised signatory of the Club. TERMINATIONS Where the registration of a Contract Player has been terminated by either the Club or the Player, this must be in accordance with the provisions set out under FA Rule C1(I) and the terms of the contract. 6.5.2 The transfer of a registration of a Non-Contract Player from one Club to another must be in writing, on the Competition transfer form, signed by the Non-Contract Player and the two Clubs, and the form must be forwarded to the Company for approval and registration. Such Non-Contract Player does not become a bona-fide Player of the Club seeking his transfer until the form has been approved and registered by the Competition. A Non-Contract Player whose registration for a Club is cancelled or transferred for any reason whatsoever cannot, without the consent of the Board, return to his original Club until a minimum of fourteen (14) days has elapsed from the date of the cancellation or transfer. 6.5.3 A Club cannot register the transfer of a Contract Player or Non-Contract Player unless that Player has been registered with the transferor Club for at least 14 days, unless that Player is a goalkeeper. 6.5.4 A Club shall submit to the Board any contract it proposes to enter into which gives the Club or any other party to the proposed contract any rights relating to the transfer of the registration of a Player at a date in the future from or to the Club or any rights relating to the employment for the Player by the Club. Any such proposed contract shall be subject to the approval of the Board. 6.6.1 Where the Rules of the relevant League permit, Short Term Loans and Long-Term Loans of Contract players shall be allowed to or from Clubs in membership of: - • The Premier League • The Football League • The Football National League • The Isthmian Football League • The Northern Premier League • The Southern Football League • Any other Leagues which have been authorised by the FA as shown in Appendix B on such terms and conditions as shall be mutually agreed by the two clubs and the player. For Loan Transfers between Clubs in the same Competition the transfer must be completed on the National League System Temporary Transfer Form. For Loan Transfers between Clubs in different Competitions the transfer must be completed on FA Form H3 together with a registration form applicable for the Competition of the transferee club. The player being taken on loan must sign a Competition contract registration form which will be valid for the full period of the loan, including any extension to the loan period. If the original Loan agreement contains a pre-agreed recall clause, a Player may be recalled by the loaning Club submitting written confirmation to the borrowing Club, the Competition and The FA. Where no pre-agreed recall clause exists, the cancellation must be agreed between the loaning Club, the borrowing Club and the Player. The loaning Club must submit written confirmation to the borrowing Club, the Competition and The FA. The Competition’s standard cancellation form must be used to prematurely end the Temporary Transfer period. The temporary registration for the borrowing Club will automatically be deemed to be cancelled upon maturity of the temporary transfer period. Where a Short-Term Loan, expires, and is not renewed simultaneously, any subsequent Short-Term Loan, of that Player to the same Club will be subject to a minimum duration of 28 days. Where a Short-Term Loan, [Youth Loan] or Long-Term Loan (or period of Work Experience) expires on or after the last match of the season and the Club finishes in a Play-Off Position, and both Clubs agree, the Loans shall be extended to include the Club’s remaining Play-Off Matches. Any such extension is not subject to any time limits that would otherwise apply and must be agreed in writing by the player’s parent Club and be registered with the Competition and the Association in accordance with these Rules. No more than four (4) Players (Short Term, Long Term) may join one Club from another Club (or club) in any Playing Season. 6.6 Temporary Transfers (Loans)
