Questions

When do I need to register? ＋
Before you take part in any camp, clinic, practice, game, or tryout of more than two practices. Register again every season.
What information is collected? ＋
Full name, phone number, date of birth, email, address, gender, role (player, coach and so on), type of football (tackle, flag or touch) and your club or association. Players also agree to Football Canada and Football Ontario waivers.
I play and coach. Do I register twice? ＋
Yes. Register once for each role and each type of football. Fees are charged per discipline.
Can my club add its own questions? ＋
Yes. Clubs can add questions using their TeamLinkt microsite, which is free for Football Ontario member clubs.
Is this the same as registering with my club? ＋
