Read below for further information regarding the use of Government vouchers under the new National Membership Model.
Can I use state government sports vouchers to pay for my membership?
No, vouchers for your membership component can’t be used at this stage.
Vouchers can still be used for your local competition expenses which represents better value for families.
How do players register with their vouchers for the Association/Club component?
If you have players that are using their government vouchers for registrations, vouchers can only be used on the association/club component of levies.
In NSW, there is an option to claim your voucher at the point of registration as has been the case since the inception of MySideline. By submitting a claim this will remove the voucher amount from the total leaving the National membership and any balance of the association/club that is greater than the value of the voucher remaining.
In all other states and territories, the associations/clubs will need to redeem the vouchers offline through their current process. The options available to players include:
Can I pay my national membership and local competition fees in the same transaction?
Yes, subject to how your competition is managed, national (and state if you live or play outside of NSW and QLD) membership can be paid alongside competition fees in one convenient, single transaction. Remembering national membership fees are only applicable the first time a player registers on or after 1 July each year.
If competitions are managed this way, then players may be able to use government vouchers to pay for their entire fee subject to the voucher total..
We have local sponsors, committee members or life members that do not pay to play. Do they need to be a member?
Yes, the national membership is applicable to all participants and critical to ensure everyone is protected when they play..
Any benefits to local sponsors, committee members, life members or others can be applied to local competition fees at each competition’s discretion.
How do I issue an Association Discount Code for the Association/Competition Fee?
Association Discount Codes can be issued from within the admin database of MySideline. To access this, navigate to.
Discount codes can be used by anyone who holds the code, but they can only be redeemed once and only within 7 days of issue.
The voucher number used can be seen in the registration payment report at all levels.
How do I issue a Club Discount Code for the Club fee?
Association Discount Codes can be issued from within the admin database of MySideline. Again, navigate to.
Discount codes can be used by anyone who holds the code, but they can only be redeemed once and only within 7 days of issue.
The voucher number used can be seen in the registration payment report at all levels.
