The West Australian Football Commission can confirm that AFL-listed players being released from their AFL contracts prior to the end of the season are not eligible to play in the WAFL competition in 2020 under WAFL Rules and Regulations.
The National Transfer Application Period (Rule 1.4.1) was extended in 2020 from June 30 to July 31 to provide eligible players with the opportunity to seek transfers to the WAFL from Leagues that were not proceeding due to COVID-19.
The WAFC can confirm that there will be no further extension to the National Transfer Application Period in 2020 and that exemption requests submitted after the extended July 31 deadline have been declined to ensure that the integrity of the WAFL competition is protected over the remaining four rounds of the season.
AFL-listed players being released from their AFL contracts prior to the end of the season will be permitted to participate in WAFL club training.
