Participation of female players in male categories

Requesting special permission

Clubs wishing to register a player in a category that does not meet the established age or gender requirements must submit a written request for prior approval to the organisation, together with the corresponding authorisation from the competent football federation of the player's region.

These requests may include, among others, cases involving players with intellectual or physical disabilities or players undergoing gender transition.

Participation will only be permitted if the organisation has granted written approval before the start of the tournament. Presenting documentation or authorisations during accreditation or after the tournament has begun will not be accepted.
