Harry catches up with Vale Wanderers ladies about their recent Kilkenny league win and their run all the way to the final of the LFA Junior Women’s Shield, and Carlow League Secretary Brian O’Reilly gives us the lowdown on the Carlow League AGM which took place last night including the resounding decision from Carlow clubs to vote no to Calendar Football.
Carlow statement below:
At last night’s AGM of the Carlow & District football league, a vote took place with our affiliate clubs on the new FAI football pathway plan and moving to calendar season football. The clubs voted 16 to 0 to reject calendar football and we can confirm that the CDFL will not now or ever play our season in one calendar year. We will continue to respect the wishes of all our clubs who we work so hard for and run our seasons from September to May as we have done so for over three decades with huge success. This is a decision that has been made not by some executive members but the whole league with not one club voting for it. We ask that the FAI board respect each leagues right to choose either winter football and calendar football as currently is the case.
