Internal transfer of players
Anyone can start a transfer process for a player’s internal transfer (from a Finnish club to another Finnish club). All players that have an eligibility (paid license) for previous or current season, need to make an official internal transfer in order to change the eligibility to another club.
Go to www.edustus.fi/basket and fill in player’s information and choose the club the player is transferring to.
- The platform sends a confirmation e-mail to the player or under 18-year-old player’s guardian.
- The platform sends a confirmation e-mail to the club the player is transferring from.
- The platform sends a confirmation e-mail to the club the player is transferring to.
- Anyone of the above can pay the transfer fee during the transfer process.
The player’s eligibility will automatically transfer to the receiving club (the club the player is transferring to) on the next day, after all the confirmation e-mails have been cleared and the payment has been made.
