Everything you need to know about Affiliation ahead of 2024/2025

Teams and Clubs will be able to affiliate to Middlesex FA for the 2024/2025 Season by using the Club Portal system from the 1st June 2024.

Team-Based Affiliation Model

As was the case last season, affiliation will be a team-based model. This should provide greater flexibility to those teams that are fully compliant to affiliate and begin playing football straight away.

Another key advantage of the current system is that providing a team is compliant with all requirements, much of the affiliation process will be automated and allow teams to affiliate much faster than in previous seasons. The onus is therefore on teams to ensure they are fully compliant to help themselves once affiliation begins. Should a team attempt to affiliate without making the necessary checks, the team be due a County FA check and will be affiliated manually, likely meaning it will be delayed in comparison to the automated process. 

How will Clubs affiliate? 

Whilst Clubs are affiliated, the main affiliation and insurance will run off the team. This means one team can become affiliated and insured and be able to play whilst the other teams in that club still complete the affiliation and administration process.

How will teams affiliate? 

Teams will affiliate using the Club Portal system, which is the same portal used for player registration. This will be placed under the ‘Teams’ section. 

Insurance

Clubs and teams will be provided insurance through UKGlobal and this is included as part of the affiliation procedure. The cost of insurance for Clubs and teams is detailed below. Clubs and teams looking to obtain insurance through a different provider will be required to attach their policy documents during the process. 

Club Public Liability Insurance – £24 per club

Adult Personal Accident (Option 1) – £71.30 per team

Adult Personal Accident (Option 2) – £96.95 per team

Adult Personal Accident (Option 3) – £125.95 per team

Adult Personal Accident (Option 4) - £150.95 per team

Youth Personal Accident – £17.28 per team

The above insurance premiums are based on the basic level of cover provided. During the affiliation process, teams will have the opportunity to upgrade their level of cover, with prices and information to be visible on the Club Portal once the period opens in June.

It is also worth noting that purchasing through UKGlobal will help with the automated process, as this is the insurance available to purchase through the system directly.
