What club, federation, governing body or recognised organisation relationship is required?

A certificate of sponsorship from a licensed sponsor is required before applying to come to the Isle of Man to work, and the work, training or research must relate to the work of the sponsor organisation. The official source does not state whether a sports governing body endorsement or club relationship is required.
