ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL.
ANNUAL REPORT OF DOMINION : BODY. {Peb United , Press Association.) WELLINGTON, May 1. 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 siich competitions as the Chatham Gup. For the same reason it was imposible to send a school side to return the visit of the Australians,, nor could the council continue to present : footballs to schools. Proposals, however, will be made this year for paying a visit to Australia. The council’s debit balance is £317. Although it had asked the affiliated associations to set aside a day last season for raising money to reduce the liability, the results were very disappointing.
