Following consultation with Government today, in light of the country’s move to Level 3 COVID-19 restrictions, the Football Association of Ireland can confirm the following:
All adult amateur teams can enjoy a return to training as from today, subject to strict Government guidelines and FAI Safer Return to Training Protocol
For adult amateur and underage teams, outdoor non-contact training is permissible in pods of 15 with a minimum of one coach present. Two coaches must be present for all underage teams
Players and coaches are permitted to travel to train with the club they are registered with
The FAI is currently awaiting clarification regarding how the restrictions will impact underage Elite National League football and will update affiliates at the earliest opportunity
