The Fiji Football Association (FFA) has introduced a new registration policy requiring players to commit to a single discipline—either football or futsal—for the upcoming season.
The rule, which applies to club-level competitions, prevents players from registering in both codes simultaneously.
FFA Chief Executive Officer Mohammed Yusuf said the decision supports the long-term growth of the game.
“This season, players will need to commit to one code. This commitment allows them to focus their training, preparation, and development, which will ultimately raise the standard of both football and futsal in Fiji,” Yusuf said.
He clarified that the policy will not automatically apply to regional competitions, leaving the decision to individual Member Associations (MAs).
“Member Associations that wish to align their competitions with FFA regulations are encouraged to do so. However, they must formally notify the FFA Registration Department to ensure the necessary changes are implemented in the COMET registration system,” Yusuf added.
