Before you register

Please read the information below on registration before registering on PlayFootball.

General Information

• Registration opens in January (exact date varies each year).
• Each player needs their own FFA Number:
  • New players will need to create an FFA account (via PlayFootball).
  • Returning players must use their previous email address to log on and retrieve their PlayFootball account.
• Each player for U12 and above will require a NEW photograph. You cannot proceed with your registration until it has been uploaded. Please see below for instructions on photos.
• If you did not play for the MWFA in the previous season you must complete an MWFA Application to Register.

Proof Of Age (POA)

If they have not previously done so, all players U12 and above (and new U10 or U11 players) must provide the MWFA (via the club) with a copy of one of the following proof of age documents.

• Birth certificate

• Passport

If none of these are available, please complete the Statuary Declaration of Birth Date. This document requires the signature of a Justice of the Peace.

Active and Creative Kids Vouchers

The Active Kids Voucher scheme from 2023 expired on 31.Jan’24 and unfortunately these vouchers can no longer be redeemed.

The new Active and Creative Kids (ACK) Voucher scheme is available from 1.Feb’24 and is worth $50 which is discounted from your kids registration fee. The process is:

1. Apply for your Active and Creative Kids Voucher using this link
2. Register your child for Allambie Beacon Hill United using this link
3. Enter the ACK Voucher number on the Payment Options screen at the end of the registration process.

If you have never registered, proceed to step 1.

If you have registered at any time from 2019 onwards, proceed to step 2.

If you registered before 2019 but not since, read on here.

Your registration is with the old MyFootballClub system. Since then, FFA has migrated all current and previous registrations to the new PlayFootball system. If you have registered before you will be able to claim profiles from MyFootballClub provided you use the same email address to sign up.
