Additionally, a form signed by the director of the broadcasting station will have to be presented, stating that the program is in effect broadcast by that station. A cassette or video - according to the case in point - with the recording of the last broadcast of the program will also have to be presented.

MEDIA FROM THE REST OF THE COUNTRY AND FROM ABROAD (FOREIGN MEDIA)
Those media which on account of geographical distance cannot pick up the aforementioned blank form should proceed directly as mentioned in section 2.
The graphic media should present a copy of the last three issues published and at least three articles signed by the newsmen to be accredited.
Foreign radio stations that wish to have a telephone line at their disposal should apply for it at the telephone company in their country.

FREE-LANCE JOURNALISTS
free-lance journalists will not be accredited.
In order to be accredited, each journalist will need a credential
issued by his medium which will accredit him as its representative.
2.Once the aforementioned

of all the documents specified, to request accreditations
a fax will have to be sent for each match with a sufficient
lead time (according to the time length specified by the Press
Department - see "Days and Scheduled Times" below) - , all
exceptions barred. This note (fax) will display the letterhead
of the medium, the number of credentials asked for, the given
name and surname of each of the persons to be accredited,
and will have to be signed by the person in charge. His/her
telephone number will be added so that Club officials may
communicate with him/her should this be deemed necessary.
It is recommended that the medium get in touch with the Club
in order to confirm the arrival of the mentioned fax. The

To obtain the accreditation for a match , foreign press photographers should contact ARGRA (Venezuela 1433, Buenos Aires - Phone 54-11-4381/6853 or by e-mail to acreditaciones@argra.org..ar ). Such accreditations are limited in number.

Important information to take into account:
-Accreditations cannot be transferred
-Media credentials are only issued for official purposes and
to people who are carrying out a pertinent professional activity.
Therefore access to the medias' installations cannot be granted
to spouses, friends, or children of said professionals or
to other people.
-The accreditations granted by the Boca Juniors Athletic Club
are considered official documents of this institution. Hence
the misuse (transfer or other) of these entail the temporary
or definitive cancellation of the activities for which they
were granted to the medium in question.
-Both the playing field and the mixed premises are considered
work areas. Therefore it is strictly forbidden to ask for
player authographs, jerseys, or the taking of snapshots with
the players.
THE COVERING OF TRAINING SESSIONS
In order to cover training sessions journalists will exhibit their respective credentials of their medium to the club personnel in charge of security.
The journalists should keep in mind that the training modes referred to as "open door" or "closed door" are determined by the team coach of the training activity.
