Player to set out name and location of the two clubs for which he/she would like to play; Player to provide proof to the satisfaction of the RFU of permanent home residence; Player to provide proof to the satisfaction of the RFU that he/she is an genuinely enrolled student at a higher/further education institution; and Player to provide such additional information as the RFU may request. Having reviewed the documentation, if the Registrar in its discretion approves that the player should be able to play for both clubs and is eligible for a student pass, the player shall be registered onto the RFU’s system as a student authorised under the student pass trial. When considering if a player should be eligible for a student pass, the RFU will take into account the circumstances of the player, the RFU regulations, the trial conditions, the document/evidence provided to support the application, the integrity of rugby and any specific competition/league in which the player may play, and provided the player does not play for two clubs in the same league. Once the player has provided all necessary documentation pursuant to RFU Regulation 14 or 16 (as applicable) and these conditions, the registrar will confirm if the player is eligible to participate in the trial and to play for both clubs during the season without further need to re-register. If a player is accepted onto the trial, the player will be classified as a loan player on loan to the second club and therefore the loan player provisions of RFU Regulation 14 or 16 (as applicable) will continue to apply including without limitation Regulation 14.3.5(c), 14.6.5. and 14.6.6. Should the player’s circumstances change, the player must notify the RFU. Participation in the student pass trial can be revoked at any time by the RFU.
