The CBL Registration fees are below.
| Item | Price (€) |
| CBL Club Registration Fee 2026 | 200 |
| CBL Player Registration Fee 2026 | 10 |
| FAI Player Registration Annual Levy per player (FAI Player Registration to a club does not lapse unless the player is terminated, so all players remain registered every season with your club unless terminated or re-registered with a new club, but there is an annual levy billed to each club for each currently registered player. All new Players need to be paid before they are registered to the CBL via FAI Connect.) | 4 |
For players to be activated on CBL Competitions, a player’s registration fee has to be paid via the online link above. The best practice approach is for the club secretary / treasurer to pay in bulk for all players up front before the start of the season. Please use the “Quantity” field to pay for more than one player at a time. At the start of the season, you do not need to name all players on the link above, just pay for them all in bulk.
The CBL does not want individual players to pay via the link above. This allows us to recognise the contact name and email address aligned to clubs that have paid for their own players easier and quicker. As you sign players are various times throughout the Registration windows, you can then name the individual players for clarity.
These fees must be paid before your 1st fixture this season for the Club Reg and for all Players Registering otherwise no players are eligible to play.
Please also note the following updated Fines list:
| Item | Price (€) |
| Standard Red Card Fine | 40 |
| 4th Yellow Card Fine | 40 |
| 8th / 12th Yellow Card Fine | 40 |
| Team Misconduct Fine | 40 |
| Disciplinary Meeting Non-Attendance Fine | 40 |
| Illegal Player Fine | 150 |
| Team Misconduct Fine | 40 |
| Incorrectly Filled Out Team Line-Up Fine | 40 |
| 1st Walkover Fine | 150 |
| 2nd Walkover Fine | 200 |
| Objection / Protest Fee | 50 |
We have decided to keep the Club Registration Fee the same as it was for our last full season (2024 / 2025), with a review in place for 2027. However, we have increased the Player Registration Fee, and the majority of our Fines for this season have also increased.
