If you have received a "Action Required : Participant Record Conflict" email after completing a coach/referee registration, it means that the email that was used in the registration already has a Football Account but it's linked a different participant record (could be a child, spouse, partner etc). 


To access the Learning Centre and ensure the registration is linked correctly, the participant will need to update their account to link the right participant record.
