    One for Dahamsta - Junior League Section

    Dunno if this has been asked before but how about a junior league section for each Junior/District League. Clubs could use foot.ie a messageboard/noticeboard and it could raise the awareness of foot.ie even further.

    Whatcha think?

    Don't know enough about the junior league to answer tbh, but I'd wonder if there's a demand for it. I'll let my devoted underlings comment.

    "Community" forums is one way to go forward with this, i.e. requests that get a certain amount of support go into a special Community section to see how they get on, like the Hosted section on Boards. I'd only do it for forums that would fit the structure though, i.e. I'd do it for "Glenfaddachnachnageagle Rovers", but not "Forum For Jimmy's Glenfaddachnachnageagle Rovers Twice Monthly Website".

    Here's another forum suggestion from an unregistered user:

    [size=2]hello - i read your message boards regularly but never post - but i was just thinking - It would be a good idea for you to add a Leinster Senior League forum! there was an official one up til recently on lsl.ie but they got too many complaints (cos it was official i guess & wasnt moderated at all) & it was taken down. But the site itself got thousands of hits & posts! & i have heard many people say they miss it!

    Thats the kind of thing I was thinking of. Might give Junior league teams around the country the oppurtunity to make challenges with teams outside their own league easier, stick up club notices about registration, fixtures. League tables etc.

    Thats a great idea. I know clubs from the LSL would be hugely supportive.

    Talking

    I know most of the league committees are doing a fine job but communication can be poor at the best of times. A central forum for all this stuff could be invaluable. Could save me a fortune on text messages and phone calls to my team every weekend too.

    Could be handy means of contact for those who are not so close to these shores anymore who would like to follow their home club and something for the die hards to follow in the off season.

    I would agree with this idea. I wouldnt limit it to junior football though. Name it Non-League football so Intermediate matters could be discussed as well.

    A surprising number of people coulbe be interested ild say.

    Judging by the number of posts in the Limerick Junior football thread I'd say there's a good demand for it
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    I'd have to agree aswell ... Go for it !!
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    I think yes, if no other reason that Limerick Junior Football thread in eL General annoys me

    I would suggest a Non-league forum to start with - if it takes off it could be expanded to the different leagues...

    That's up to forum mod, but imo it should be in general football.

    Your wish is my command Macy.

    And for the record I too think that a Non-League forum would be a good idea.
    Champions!

    Junion League section added here. Note that all forums in the new Community section are probationary, i.e. if they don't get traffic they die.

    Now that the section is set up, how about a mod drag the thread on the limerick forum in there.
