2 and 3 Star Clubs

Step 1. Sign into Clubs Portal and click on the 'Dashboard tab'

Step 2. Beneath the Accreditation Checklist are four tabs. Sometimes there are numbers in orange which highlight the number of criteria requiring action in that section. If a tab doesn’t have a number next to it, it means this section is complete.

Step 3. Sections with an 'Incomplete" will show what you need to action. Click 'Show more' and this will show the requirements. 

Tip: Hover over the 'i' and it will show you exactly what is missing

Step 4. Make sure all the criteria is met

• Guide on how to meet the 'Club' criteria can be found here
• Guide on how to meet the 'Officials' criteria can be found here
• Guide on how to meet the 'Documents' criteria by adopting FA policies can be found here
• and how to uploading club documents can be found here
• Guide on how to meet the 'Player Pathways' criteria can be found here
• If your club is linked to another club, the parent club is responsible for the renewal. Further guidance on renewing linked clubs can be found here

Step 5.  Some sections will have the option to add a comment if you are unable to meet the criteria. This will allow you to provide further information to your County FA on your plans for this area. 

Step 6, An example of a section which may ask to ‘Provide Information’ would be the Player Pathways:

For 2/3* clubs, if you are not currently meeting the player pathway criteria, please provide information for the County FA to understand your plans for this and how they can support you.

Step 7. When all sections of the dashboard are complete, the button will be available for you to submit for renewal. 

The deadline for Accreditation renewal to be completed (and approved where required) is the 30^th April 2023.

 If you have had to provide any comments or declarations then your application will be pending a review before it is either approved or rejected by your County FA.

Please note: If your County FA does not need to review your application, you will be automatically renewed
