The Single National System (SNS) is now delivering to the Thoroughbred industry nationally the capacity to provide participants with core industry functions online rather than completing paper-based forms.
Racing NSW in conjunction with Racing Australia will again offer and request that 2022/23 licence applications (from those registered in season 2021/22) are again completed online this season via the SNS. Please note Racing NSW will not be accepting paper-based registrations this season.
The online system to register 2022/23 Stablehand, Foreperson and Bookmaker’s Clerk licenses is now activated and available. Current licences for these categories expire on 31 October 2022.
Staff who completed their licence registration online last season or have an individual email address registered with Racing NSW:
Staff who submitted their licence registration online last season or who have an individual email address registered with Racing NSW will be sent an email advising of the process to submit a licence registration application.
Those that do not have an individual email address registered with Racing NSW:
Whilst the high majority have an individual email registered and will receive the email mentioned above, those that do not have an email registered will be required to contact the Racing Australia Service Centre on 1800 954 143 to provide and request that a registration offer be sent.
As the system relies on the use of an individual email address, it is most important that the User does not use an address that may also be used by another licensed person or that of their employing Trainer or Bookmaker as this address will be registered to them and used to operate their own accounts, including to sign off on staff registrations. Once the User has created an account they will receive an email that will provide them with further advice on the process to complete their licence registration.
Requirement for Trainer or Bookmaker to Sign Off on registration:
As per the paper-based applications, Trainers and Bookmakers are required to review and confirm their agreement to register each licensee that has nominated them as their Trainer or Employing Bookmaker. Once the licensee has completed their part of the registration, an email will be sent to the Trainer/Bookmaker with advice on how to complete this process. Trainers will do so via their UserReg Accounts or Stable Assist Account, Bookmakers by their UserReg Accounts.
Those Trainers who do not have a Stable Assist or UserReg or Bookmakers who don’t have a UserReg account should contact Racing Australia Service Centre on 1800 954 143 for assistance. Licensees who were registered to another Trainer or Bookmaker last season, will have the opportunity to amend their Trainer/Bookmaker through this online registration process.
