Living in south dublin so will probably try go with the rebels but hopefully we will play you someday

S_Maguire · 22-08-2014 2:52pm

The Rebels are a pretty good team to begin with, you get plenty of experience.

The South Kildare Soldiers are looking for assistant and positional coaches for the up coming season. Please contact SKSoldiers2015@gmail.com

does anyone know when the fixtures for next year are out? should be soon right?

Guffy · 11-12-2014 8:53pm

There is an AGM on Saturday, I believe they will be released at this. Assuming all of the audit meetings were satisfactory.

nasty_crash · 12-12-2014 3:08pm

Think all the audits were fine - AGM should have a full schedule proposed - including 4th july games and that! Roll on tomorrow

nerd69 · 12-12-2014 7:29pm

Great news that all teams passed what are the new teams is it just Donegal/Derry I herd dit are just playing flag for a bit

davetherave · 13-12-2014 7:02pm

Just back in from the AGM. Suffering jaysus, thank god it is only once a year I'll say that much.

North West Vipers are in IAFL2 in 2015.
DIT are formative members with a view of fielding a team in 2016.

SBC North is Belfast, Carrick, Craigavon, Rebels and Panthers
SBC South is NKR, WDR, TCD, UCD and UL

IAFL 1 is up to 7 teams. Waterford, Mullingar, Meath, Cork, Drogheda with Tyrone and Dundalk moving up from IAFL 2

IAFL 2 is still TBC. South Kildare are still down there, as are Galway and now the Vipers. What the Association are looking at is for SBC teams to have "B" teams take part in IAFL2.

So there will be 20 teams playing kitted football next year.

Cheers.. was dreading the two trips north if we had to play a trojans b as well as derry/donegal.

I think they should do two divisions in IAFA 1. North and south. Play your division twice and the other division once. Travel between titans and southern teams would be a mare alright but would just be one game

EJ88 · 14-01-2015 8:24pm

I'll hopefully be playing for the Vipers, we're well spread out in our division.

nasty_crash · 15-01-2015 11:02am

yeah its gonna be tough for vipers this year - im with the soldiers and only for drogheada dropping down it would be brutal for us - galway is a long trip - and donegal is a really long trip! Vipers will have tough away days

Ah right. What position do you play? How many years are the soldiers going? Yeah Galways about 4 hours for us, would nearly be the same to Kildare.

left tackle - soldiers are going about 2 years - first time in the league last year so looking forward to this season to push on! Hows the vipers going at the moment? first training last week?

Ah cool. Going to try Receiver myself. Yeah just had the first training last week. Had a good turn out. Are you guys training again?

nasty_crash · 16-01-2015 10:07am

never stop training to be honest - took a break for 2 weeks over xmas but back to training since the 7th! Got a few newbies in this year that we want to give the best foundation of the game!
Is it all newbies with you guys?

EJ88 · 16-01-2015 10:56am

Yeah all new guys as far as I know. The coach seems to be the only one with playing experience. Bit of a steep learning curve but I guess that's the fun of it. Yeah it's good that you guys have the experience for the new guys.

nasty_crash · 16-01-2015 11:21am

once you get your first game outta the way your grand!! our first game against the mavericks was awesome - great build up and great game - we lost - but all the better for the experience of it!

EJ88 · 18-01-2015 11:09pm

I watch a lot of American football but it's amazing some of the things you pick up on after you learn to play.

nasty_crash · 10-02-2015 10:54am

Hearing reports that Drogheda Lightning could be out of the league - not sure as to why but i think the club may be wrapped up!

Guffy · 10-02-2015 11:01am

Was told yesterday that 6 teams were confirmed for IAFL2. Don't know if this includes drogheda and 2 b teams or 3 b teams. Can't think of who third b team is though. Belfast, rebels and ?

Schedule should be released Wednesday.

nasty_crash · 10-02-2015 11:23am

UL Vikes i heard yesterday too

Guffy · 10-02-2015 11:50am

Do they not have a small enough first team?

Although thinking now they brought a few rookies to Spain didn't they?

nasty_crash · 10-02-2015 11:57am

I thought that they had a small roster too - but apparently enough interest for a b team! Should be great for you guys to have a game close enough to home!
Cant wait for the schedule
