What should be included in the refusal notification for a letter of clearance?

The inclusion of a copy of the valid contract in the refusal notification for a letter of clearance is essential because it serves as critical documentation to substantiate the basis for the refusal. This contract provides clear evidence of the player's current commitments and the terms agreed upon, making it possible to evaluate the legitimacy of the clearance request. By having this document, the receiving clubs and relevant authorities can understand the context of the player's situation and why the clearance might have been denied. It aids in transparency and ensures that all parties are informed and aware of the contractual obligations that affect the player's eligibility to transfer or move to another club.

While other aspects, such as the player's future club details, a statement from FIBA, or the reason for refusal, may also play relevant roles in different contexts, providing a copy of the valid contract is fundamental in addressing the legal foundations of the situation regarding player transfers in accordance with FIBA regulations.
