Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Professional Club League

How do I join a club?

First, create your player profile with verified KYC. Once verified, you'll appear in the recruitment list where club owners can scout and invite you. You can also apply directly to clubs through their profiles.

What are the membership fees?

Player membership costs ₹75/month and Club membership costs ₹250/month. These fees don't include match booking, referee, or tournament entry fees.

How does the tier system work?

PCL has a structured progression system for clubs to advance from grassroots to professional level:

District Qualifiers (DQL)

Entry point for all new clubs. Participate in local district-level tournaments to establish your club and gain experience. Performance here determines eligibility for tier advancement.

Tier 3 - Amateur Division

Top DQL performers advance to the regional Amateur Division league. Clubs compete in official league matches and tournaments within this structured tier.

Tier 2 - Intermediate Division

State-level league for the best Amateur teams. Clubs compete in the Intermediate Division league structure with higher stakes and improved facilities.

Tier 1 - Professional Division

Elite national-level league with full professional standards. The pinnacle of PCL's league structure.

Important Notes:

  • Friendly Matches: Can be played at any tier level without affecting tier standings
  • Official Tournaments: Only count towards tier progression when played within your tier
  • Promotion: Based on win rate, points, and league position at season end

What's the difference between DQL and Tier tournaments?

District Qualifiers (DQL)

DQL is a separate qualification system for new clubs to prove their capability. It's district-based, with matches organized locally. Success in DQL tournaments earns entry into Tier 3.

Tier System (Tier 3, 2, 1)

Once in the tier system, clubs compete in official league matches and tournaments. Performance determines promotion/relegation between tiers. Tier 1 is the pinnacle of PCL competition.

Friendly matches can be scheduled at any time and don't affect tier standings - they're perfect for practice and team building.

What match formats are available?

We support 5-a-side (8 min squad), 7-a-side (11 min squad), and 11-a-side (14 min squad) formats. Each format has specific pitch sizes, rules, and duration requirements.

Can I book stadiums for practice?

Yes! Club owners can book registered stadiums for matches, practice sessions, and tournaments. Hourly rates and availability vary by venue.

Do I need KYC verification?

Yes, KYC verification is mandatory for all users to participate in official matches and tournaments. This ensures player authenticity and eligibility tracking.
