NQTA Event Registration Procedure

The Touch Football Online platform is structured in the following levels:

What Access Level Do I Have?

If you are a local competition administrator (i.e. you organise the draws, etc. for your local Touch Football association), then you will likely already have "Association Level" access to your association's TFO database.

Other users may have access to their club ("Cub Level" access) or team  ("Team Level" access) within their own local association's TFO database.

If you were a tour coordinator at any NQTA championship after July 2013 then you will have been given access to your "club" inside the NQTA TFO database.

Within the Touch Football database structure, there is no "Regional Level" access, instead the NQTA "Event database" exists on the same level as local association's.

At present, there is no linking between the NQTA TFO database and a local association's database.

What If I Don't Have Access?

If you don't have access, but should, email admin(at)nqtouch(dot)com(dot)au or call the NQTA office on (07) 4725 6133.

Tour Coordinators can access Touch Football Online via:
