In addition to SBE Club registration and fees, all players MUST register with Hockey Australia to pay Hockey Australia (HA), Hockey Queensland (HQ) and insurance fees. This part of the process should be completed as soon as possible, and MUST be completed before a player can take the field on their first match.
All non-playing coaches, managers, umpires and game officials should also register via this process, however, fees do not have to be paid for these members.

These fees will have to be paid online through the Hockey Australia registration process as outlined below.
A new national database for this registration process was introduced in 2020. For those that didn't play in 2020 you will need will have to register as NEW members in the national database.
When you land on the registration page, there will be two options: REGISTER or RENEW. Choose the RENEW option (unless you are a dual player, or have played with a NSW or ACT club within last 2 years - see below).
- Transferring from a NSW or ACT club? If you are a new player to SBE, transferring from a NSW or ACT club and have played within the last 2 years, will need to request a clearance from your previous club before registering in the Hockey Australia system. Please email SBE to find out if your transfer request has been processed. When you register in the national system with SBE you will select the RENEW option.
- Dual Players - Please register and pay the HA/HQ fees online with your Primary Association/Club before you register as a Secondary player with SBE. When you register in the national system with SBE you will select the RENEW option. You will not be charged the HA/HQ/Insurances fees a second time.
- Will you be coaching, managing, umpiring or doing tech bench for SBE and not playing? You will need to register as a member in the national system. You will not be charged any fees for this type of registration.
