All 22 clubs hoping to play competitive kitted football next season attended their annual face to face audit meeting at CityWest in Dublin yesterday. These meetings serve as an important quality control measure to ensure that each team playing competitive football has everything in place and is competing at the appropriate level. They also afford each club an opportunity to give the IAFA feedback.
Several weeks ago, each club had submitted a detailed audit/application form concerning their club covering topics such as administration, finances, home ground, playing roster and coaching squad. After having reviewed these forms, each team was given the opportunity to discuss the status of their club and any issues arising in a confidential face to face meeting with IAFA Board members/Directors. Three groups of IAFA Board members/Directors each met with 7 or 8 allocated teams during the course of the day, with each meeting taking c.1 hour. Newcomers North Dublin Pirates, PSNI Razorbacks and Wexford Eagles all attended.
