      The Australian Youth Footballer Regulatory Guide - Peter Paleologos

      THE AUSTRALIAN

      YOUTH FOOTBALLER

      REGULATORY GUIDE

      About

      Peter Paleologos is a registered football intermediary/player agent and leading football lawyer based in Melbourne, Australia and is the former President and current committee member of the Australian Football Agents Association Inc (AFAA Inc). In addition, he is the Australian editorial contributor to Football Legal, the pre-eminent international football law journal based in France and was recently appointed by FIFA as a FIFA pro bono counsel.

      Peter possesses a comprehensive player agent and football law network in Asia, the Americas, Europe and Australia and has been in the player agent industry for close to a decade.

      As a stakeholder in the Australian youth football landscape, Peter has identified that many Australian youth footballers and their parents, lack sufficient information and guidance concerning youth player pathways, regulatory requirements and how to deal with clubs and player agents on an informative level. This advanced guide provides some general and relevant information for both Australian youth footballers and their parents, in order to navigate the pathways and regulatory aspects that youth players may encounter when transitioning to a professional football career. Finally, this guide covers questions and topics that Peter has provided general advice on to parents, players and other player agents over the last 10 years.

      REGULATIONS TO CONSIDER - THE AUSTRALIAN PATHWAY

      The journey for a young talented Australian footballer who has taken the Australian football professional pathway and achieves a contract with an A-League club, is subject to the A-League salary cap requirements and both the A-League and Y-League Player Contracting Regulations.

      Firstly, the A-League club salary cap currently set for season 2019/2020 at $3,200,000 for clubs (other than Western United which is $3,600,000) and the A-League contracting rules directly affect Australian youth players who reach the A-League squads, and obtain a full professional A-League professional contract through governing the remuneration they receive. Secondly, the A-League and Y-League Player Contracting Regulations regulate the number of contracted Y-League youth players and scholarship players who can be contracted by A-League clubs. For instance, each A-League club can contract up to nine (9) under 20 Australian players on the national minimum wage, in a two-fold fashion, either being the minimum youth salary for contracted Y-League players or the national minimum wage for Scholarship Players. Any payments above the national minimum wage to these players may be included in the A-League club’s salary cap. Y-League and Scholarship players on a A-League Club’s Y-League player roster, are eligible to participate in the Hyundai A-League. An Australian youth player is defined as an Australian player born on or after 1 January 1998 for the 2019/2020 A-League season.
