You need to be 16 years old to be able to book on to this course. This needs to be at the time of application/purchase and not by the time the course begins.
You must also hold an in-date:
- Safeguarding Children in Football qualification (or the recertification)
- FA medical qualification, e.g. Introduction to First Aid in Football (IFAIF) (or higher).
* If you have previously held an FA medical qualification (IFAIF or higher) and have since completed a recognised alternative medical award, this can be accepted as an equivalent prerequisite for the course. To view the recognised non-FA medical courses and the process for submission, visit the Accepted non-FA Medical Courses page.
