Lancashire FA - developing football for everyone
Governance - safeguarding the game

Competition Sanction

If your Club is affiliated to a County FA, it is important that you only enter sanctioned competitions, particularly for governance and insurance purposes.

Rule 4(a) of The Football Association states that, ‘Clubs, players and officials subject to the jurisdiction of The Football Association or an affiliated Association shall not be associated with or play with or against any Club which is not a Member of The Association or an affiliated Association.’ The Club agrees to ensure that all competitions the Club or its members compete in are sanctioned by the appropriate Association.

Alternatively, if you are the organiser of a competition, you are required to apply for sanctioning by the Association at least fourteen days prior to the start date of the competition.
