ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL.
INTERCHANGE OP VISITS WITH. AUSTRALIA. By Telegraph—Pres* Association. WELLINGTON, February 19. The request of the Australian Football Association that a New Zealand team should visit the Commonwealth this year, and an Australian team visit New Zealand in 1931, has been considered by the Council of the New Zealand Football Association. It has been decided to comply with the request, on condition that the same terms apply to the visit of the Australian team next year. The team will leave some time in June, and the tour will cover a period of from six to eight weeks. Australia takes all and pays all in Australia, any profit going to the Commonwealth; and the same condition will apply the following year when the Australian team comes to New Zealand. The chairman of the New Zealand Council, Mr F. Campbell, stated today, in regard to the finances of the New Zealand body, that the Council was now free from debt, and they had a small credit balance, while two of the major Associations were still indebted to the Council.
