How to Pass the FIFA Football Agent Exam - Book 2

Preparing for the football agents exam is a time-consuming endeavour. This series of books aims to prepare you, teach you, and train you how to pass the football agent exam. This series of books will also provide you with the practical elements and theoretical knowledge to help you gain an edge over other football agents in this highly competitive sector. I passed the football agent exam in my first attempt in 2007 in the Netherlands. Since then, I have honed my approach into a method to help other aspiring agents pass the exam. My goal and purpose are to train and guide current intermediaries through the essential study material. I will try to accomplish this in the simplest way possible. However, as the FIFA regulations have been amended several times based on both CAS and FIFA jurisprudence, it is irrevocable not to mention certain landmark cases to explain the meaning of the articles and provisions. Intermediaries who are already in possession of a licence, can use this series of books as a handbook to refresh their knowledge and update their skills as the books will give you a comprehensive overview of all the essential material and updates from the past years. Students who aspire to build a career in the sports industry as a football agent can use this series of books as a first introduction to the most important regulations and jurisprudence. About the writer Patrick Poldervaart is a Rotterdam-based football agent currently working in Breda for one of the leading agencies in the Netherlands. In 2007, Patrick was one of the youngest ever to pass the FIFA players' agent exam (without a resit-exam). In his more than a decade-long career as a football agent, he has concluded more than 300 transfers and employment contracts. Patrick has provided legal assistance and advice to many football agents and clubs on concluding and finalising (inter)national transfers. He ensures that football agents' practices, (international) procedures, transfer contracts, employment contracts and representation contracts are compliant with the latest (inter)national laws and regulations.
