Agents activity in the 2013 / 14 season shows that:
a) £2.7m including VAT was paid out to Agents and this was an increase from last year.
b) There were 47 agencies representing Players in the Premiership and five of those agencies covered 50% of the market and 42 of those agencies covered the other 50% of the market.
c) 404 Players were represented by the Agents.
The Agents Review Board has been focusing on the extent to which Agents should be permitted to represent Players that were under the age of 18. The current Regulation on this point is covered off in Regulation 8.8.4 which states the following:
8.8.4 Registered Agents must not make any offer of contract, provide any letter of intent or offer any inducement to any Player under the age of 18 or to any parent, guardian, trustee or other person of such Player, except in the case of Players aged 16 or more where a contract is offered under which the only material consideration provided to the Player is in the form of a non-refundable financial grant to be applied only for the purposes of the Player’s academic and/or vocational training for a period of 12 months or longer.
Buying Tramadol Online Uk There was consensus that there were a number of concerns relating to Agents representing Players under the age of 18.
All agents as part of their renewal process on registration with the RFU have undergone the completion of the Agents Exam. As communicated in the past the ARA were very supportive of this initiative as it worked as a training exercise and would certainly raise standards. There were some concerns over the format of the exam and the high pass mark. The ARA has kept in close communication to monitor results and work few those questions in the exam that were seen as not clear. We are delighted to report that out of those agents that decided to renew and complete the exam the average pass mark was over 98%.
The breakdown of the results was as follows:
https://musiciselementary.com/2024/03/07/26c9ecim 75 completed renewal packs:
2 failed and were resent renewal packs – Past second time with 100%.
42 obtained 100%
13 obtained 98%
13 obtained 96%
7 obtained 94%

10 packs which have not been marked, due to them being incomplete, i.e. no renewal fee included or missing evidence of PI insurance. They will be marked and actioned when complete.
https://fotballsonen.com/2024/03/07/ki8cq2qg4i This therefore indicates a total number of current registered agents as 81 with a question still over the 10 packs not completed. Therefore the number of registered agents has reduced from 130.
The Rugby Players Association has announced the launch of the RPA Free Agent List, which informs clubs of player’s availability due to them being out of contract at the end of the season.

https://asperformance.com/uncategorized/66o92gy8tx The new harmonised agent’s scheme for the UK & Ireland is agreed we are now just awaiting site of the Memorandum of Understanding between the Home Unions to provide input.
As a reminder: the key principles of the harmonised scheme are:
The key theme over the coming months for the RFU and ARB are governance and ensuring the regulations around agent’s activity are enforced. The ARB is considering proposals around the introduction of fixed sanctions and a tariff tables for breaches such as nonattendance at seminars and non – compliant contracts. They are also looking into the introduction of a mediation service for disputes between agents and/ or players and clubs and the introduction of a complaint log. We are in close liaison with the RFU on these proposals and will keep members posted on developments.
It would appear that this is still a mess with clubs having different approaches. It is the ARA understands that Premiership Rugby has advised all clubs that all agents’ fees should be treated as a benefit in kind and should appear on the player’s P11D.
The fee should be treated 100% as a benefit in kind and should include any element of vat. However in practise clubs in the Premiership seem to be adopting different approaches with a rough split of a third will treat 100% as a benefit in kind as advised by Premiership Rugby; a third have some understanding with their local HMRC office and have a percentage ratio applied and a third declare nothing for P11D purposes.
The ARA are trying to formulise a procedure with the Premiership which makes it clear at the time of any deal being concluded with a player how each club will treat the P11D element with regards agent fees.
https://worthcompare.com/2ybh042 A proposal is before the ARB to hold the next agents seminar at Rugby Expo in 2014 and this is supported by the ARA. It is also hoped that the ARA will be able to have a bigger say on the format and content of this seminar to ensure a good quality event.
