Top Tips
Here are some top tips to smooth your registration process:
In the Nationality and Country of Birth fields type in New Z to quickly select New Zealand
Use the Known As field if you/your child are not known by your/their legal first name, so typically where you/they go by a nickname, a diminutive name or a second name. Don’t enter anything in this field if these conditions don’t apply
If you are registering more than one Junior player please note there is a green [Add another player] button at the bottom of the first screen
If you are a player who is registering themselves as well as one or more juniors it may pay to do the Senior registration first
Please enter phone numbers without the international code unless it is a number hosted in a other country, also please avoid inputting spaces
Remember if you are a Senior player please indicate the team you are playing in by entering that detail in the Player Requests field on the initial registration page e.g. Unmanageables or if you are a new player not associated with a team enter “new player”
