	Irish Football League - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Northern Ireland is unofficially known as 'the North', and 'Ulster' (the historic province of Ulster also includes Donegal, Cavan, and Monaghan which are in the Republic).
		The GAA is organised on an all-Ireland basis with all 32 counties competing; traditionally, counties first compete within their province, in the provincial championships, and the winners then compete in the All-Ireland senior hurling or football championships.
		Ireland's largest religious denomination is Roman Catholicism (about 70% for the entire island, and over 90% for the Republic), and most of the rest of the population adhere to one of the various Protestant denominations.

	Desmond's Concise History of Ireland
		This period, the Dark Ages or Early Middle Ages (410-800), was the era of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire, the invasions of the barbarians, and the triumph of Christianity.
		The feudal land system placed the king at the pinnacle of a pyramid, and peasants at the base, with land as the key to power, status and affluence.
		In Ireland, by early in the 14th Century, the Norman-Irish lords -- descendants of the original Normans who installed feudalism -- were actively resisting two of feudalism's principal tenets, the strong monarchy and the system of land ownership that fostered such power in the Crown.

		The British Football Association for the Visually Impaired, BFAVI (nee Handicapped), was first conceived in the late 1970’s in an attempt to afford the opportunity for those individuals aged 16 and upwards with visual impairments, whether totally blind or partially sighted, to participate in the “beautiful game” that is association football.
		The BBS P/S Football League programme is played over 6 monthly tournaments from November through to April across the country at a venue within the locality of one of the member clubs.
		The totally blind footballers were unlucky to only be placed 3rd in their section having performed brilliantly throughout the tournament particularly when being the better side when holding the eventual winners and hosts Spain to a goalless draw in the ‘round robin’ stage.

		Eight semi-professional clubs3 refused to enter the League of Wales and the 'Irate Eight', as they were dubbed, began legal proceedings against the FAW.
