Getting a licence
Players are registered via a club affiliated to a regional federation, through FESBA's online licence-processing system ('Tramitación y Listado de Licencias') using a season registration form; the site has a 'Licencias y cuotas de afiliación' (licences and affiliation fees) section but no specific price was visible on the pages read.
