What is an International Transfer Certificate (ITC)?

An International Transfer Clearance may be required for players who have registered to play for a club under a Football Association of another country.

Never Played with a Club Anywhere Before

During on-line registration process, system will ask country of birth and nationality and indicate ITC required.
Player will need to provide a copy of the picture id page of his passport to ANU FC who pass it to CF.
CF sends passport copy and player details to FFA, which sends them to other country FA.
Other country FA verifies player never registered there and clearance comes back via FFA, CF to ANU FC.

Played with Club in Own Country

During on-line registration process, system will ask country of birth and nationality and indicate ITC required.
Player prompted to enter name of previous club in home country - GET THIS RIGHT, not just approximately!
System automatically generates ITC request to FFA.
FFA sends ITC request to other country FA; FFA is very efficient at this.
Other country FA asks player’s club for clearance - this where your player can help by contacting club, telling them ITC request is coming and asking them to immediately approve it.
Clearance comes back via other country FA, FFA, CF to ANU FC

Played with a Club in Australia Previously

During on-line registration process, system will ask country of birth and nationality and indicate ITC required.
System also asks if previously played in Australia; if YES, system will drop ITC requirement.
Critical that player enters name used with previous Australian club - South American players often have a middle name and two surnames and previous Australian club may not have used correct surname.

Expect European and North American ITCs within a week, South American within a fortnight, other places it helps if you know someone in the home country FA or can get you home club to pester the national FA.

What is an SRA membership?

Previously known as the ANU Sport Membership fee, the Club Affiliation Fee is a compulsory levy paid by all non-student members of sport clubs affiliated to the ANU Sport and Recreation Association (SRA). This fee is currently $120 per annum, and is payable at the same time as the membership fee of the specific sport club. This fee provides the following benefits:

Provides affiliated sport clubs with access to discounted use of sport and recreation facilities at the ANU for training and competition.
Provides club members with discounted rates for the ANU Sport Fitness Centre and discounted access to facilities for personal use.
Provides individual members with access to personal accident insurance through the ANU Sport insurance coverage.
Provides professional indemnity insurance to the executives of affiliated organisations

If you are a member of an ANU Sport affiliated club, or the ANU Sport Gym you will have paid this fee at the time of purchasing your membership. Unfortunately, you will need to pay this fee again to the club, as we are charged per non-student member. However, you may request a refund through ANU Sport for the the months you have overpaid on your SRA Membership.

Prior to purchasing the ANU Sport Affiliation Fee, please ensure that you are familiar with the terms and conditions of becoming a member of an ANU Sport affiliated club.

Current ANU students DO NOT need to pay this fee as it is already covered through their tuition fees.
