SFAI Cup matches commence across the country this weekend. In accordance with the FAI Player Development Plan, the new weighted size 5 footballs (370g for U12, U13, & U14) should be used if they are available on site.
However, if the new football is not available on site then the traditional size 4 or 5 as appropriate to the age group can be used.
