SOCCER’S FINANCES
HANDICAPPED ACTIVITIES N.Z. ASSOCIATION’S REPORT Press Association WELLINGTON, To-day. The annual report of the New Zealand Football Association states that 18 associations are affiliated, with 543 teams, including 188 school teams. The report lays considerable stress on financial matters and the inability of the council to pay travelling expenses in such Competitions as the Chatham Cup. For the same reason it was impossible to send a school side to return the visit of the Australians, nor could the council continue to donate footballs to schools. Proposals, however, will be made this year for paying a visit to Australia. Tho council’s debit balance is £317. Although it had asked the affiliated associations to set aside a day last season for the raising of money to reduce the liability, the results were very disappointing.
