Find the player on COMET

Click on Search if the player has previously played for you

 

Once logged in, click on the Search players button on the left hand side of the screen.

Once on the Search players page, if the player has ever played for your club previously you simply need to click on the Search button highlighted as you will notice your club name has automatically been populated in the club box highlighted.

This means the system will search for every player ever registered to your club on COMET.

If the player has never played for your club before

If the player has never registered for your club before, then once on the Search players page, you will firstly need to remove the organisation and your club name from the Club box highlighted.

By leaving these boxes blank it is now allowing you to search for players outside of your club.

However, you can only find players that are new to your club if you have one of their following details:

1. Their COMET ID number
2. Their Surname AND date of birth
3. Their 6 digit number from the previous FAW registration system.

Once you have input one of these into any of the relevant boxes highlighted, just click Search.

Select the player you wish to re-register

Once you have clicked search, the system will then pull up the results of all players that have met the search criteria.

Any players currently registered to a club will show this on the right hand side of the search results.

If the player is currently unregistered the box will remain blank.

Simply find the player you wish to register.

You can narrow down the results if there are a lot of players listed, by inputting the player's COMET ID, Name or Date of Birth.

Once you have found the player, click on their name to proceed to the registration page.

Check the players details are up to date

Once on the players page, you firstly need to check that all of the data fields highlighted are correct and up to date.

If any information is missing or out of date you can go in to amend this by clicking the edit button highlighted.

As well as the information highlighted on the main page, you also need to go into the Contacts tab highlighted and check the address and email address are correct.

Again you can amend these by clicking on the edit button highlighted.

Click on New registration

Once you are happy all of the information is correct, go onto the Active registrations tab highlighted and click on New registration.

Submitting the registration request

When the registration is at stage ENTERED, it means that you have begun the process and now need to submit the registration request to the FAW.

At this point the person will have received an email containing the form which they can sign digitally to return to you via email.

Alternatively they can also print this out to sign and then scan this back via email, or take a photo of the printed and signed form to return to you via mobile or email.

You can also click the Generate registration form button to get a copy of this form if you needed to print or send via email yourself.

To proceed with the registration you then need to click the Documents button highlighted to upload a copy of this signed form onto COMET.

Once you have clicked Choose, simply go to wherever the registration form is saved on your device and then double-click on that document to upload it to COMET.

The form is now uploaded

Once you have double-clicked on the document, the screen will take you back to the pop-up box and you will see the form sitting in the registration form section.

This means that the form is now uploaded to COMET.

You can upload as many forms as you may need so don't worry if you make a mistake or upload the wrong document!

Simply upload another one and the team will review all documents.

You should now be ready to submit the registration request, so exit the pop-up box by clicking on the cross button highlighted on the top right hand side of the box.

Click on 'Yes' and the request has now been submitted to the FAW

Once you have clicked save as SUBMITTED on the main page, a pop-up box will then appear, click the 'Yes' button and your registration request has been submitted to the FAW.

You don't need to type anything in this box unless you want to share some relevant information with the FAW player registrations team.

Simply click SUBMIT in this pop-up box and the application will instantly be with the FAW registrations team for approval.

If there are any issues the team will return the application back to status ENTERED.

You will immediately be able to see this in your My Club section and you will also receive an email with the reason why, in order to resolve and re-submit in the same way.

If all is ok, the status will move to CONFIRMED and the player or parent/guardian will receive an email containing their registration ID card and a copy of their personal accident insurance cover.

You will also see the player is CONFIRMED in your My Club dashboard.
