Why can't I enter or change my team after entries close?

Updated 16 Oct 2026

Each competition has a self-registration closing date, set by the competition organiser. After that date, players, captains and parents can't make most changes themselves.

If you need to make a change after entries have closed, contact the competition organiser. They can still add or remove players and update entries.

What you can't do after entries close

  • Enter a new team or player into the competition.
  • Add or remove players on your team.
  • Change your team name or other team details. This depends on the competition: the organiser can choose to lock these once entries close.

If your team is locked, you'll see this message on your entry:

Entries have closed. The team name and players can no longer be changed. Please contact the competition organiser if you need to make an update.

What you can still do

  • Update your team's Primary Contact details, such as the captain's phone number or email. Go to My Competitions → your team → Primary Contact → Edit.

When do entries close?

The closing date is set by the competition organiser and shown when you enter the competition. If you're not sure, ask your club or the competition organiser.
