Key stages of this new campaign:
- Stages 1 : from 05/01 to 01/02 – the club created his/her applications and validates the one(s) he wishes to submit to his committee ->validated applications will be submitted to the committee.
- Stages 2 : from 02/02 to 01/03 – the committee created his requests and validates, among the requests submitted by the clubs and his own, those he wishes to submit to his league -> the validated applications are submitted to the league.
- Stages 3 : from 02/03 to 29/03 – the league created its requests and validates, among the requests submitted by the committees and its own, those that it wishes to submit to the federation -> the validated applications are submitted to the federation for final validation.
New for 2026:
To further promote our volunteers and leaders, quotas have been increased for clubs, committees and leagues.
The format is also changing: each recipient will be given a medal and a pin in the color of the merit obtained.
