Coach SPIN Requirement

As of 1 January 2016 all team or individual player coaches designated by their nation as part of their event onsite management team (solely, or in attendance with an appointed team manager*) at any Championship** held under the auspices of ESF must be WSF Registered i.e. have a WSF Squash Personal Identification Number (SPIN), as their licence to attend in a formal representative role. 

This is required at the time of them being registered to attend by their national federation.
Where a person already has a SPIN as a player, they would use their existing number. This Rule will ensure that all coaches formally fall under the WSF Code of Conduct while in formal attendance at a Regional (ESF) Championship or circuit-event. SPIN's will be required for all events taking place from 1 January 2016 onwards***.
* There is no requirement for designated team managers to be WSF Registered.
** Championships include any team or individual events where the attending national or other team / individual coaches are formally nominated to accompany those participating  
*** The cost of a SPIN is a once-for-life GBP10, and can be got online at http://www.worldsquash.org/ws/spins
