IFA ruling

Local clubs can now heave a sigh of relief. The IFA has now initiated a move clearing the deck for the clubs to replace two foreign recruits midway the season.

The earlier rule held that two foreigners, once registered for the local league, could not be replaced unless there was an exceptional case with them like serious injury and others.
