    Hi I'm looking to play football this year but wish to play for a different club than before. I haven't played football since 2007-08 with my old club, does anyone know if I still need a transfer? I was hoping Kildare bye laws said, that I don't. If it makes any difference, last level I played was junior

    You still need a transfer. If it's from a club in a different county, you can apply at any time.
    If the transfer is within the county, it will depend on county bye-laws but I doubt it can happen at this time of the year.

    The length of time without playing or registering doesn't matter??
    Thanks

    The club no longer has a senior team only underage??

    I think the best thing you can do is to contact the club secretary of the club you wish to play for and ask them to take up your case with the County Board and your last club.

    The transfer deadline within Kildare is the 1st of March. So you have to wait until the new year before you can apply again for 2015.

    But my club doesn't have a team, hardly fair not to let me play for another then?

    What club in Kildare has an underage set up but no longer has an adult team? I'm struggling to think of one!

    Yeah played for Athgarvan, gonna find out tonight if a "transfer" is possible. I would have assumed that considering there is no team, I can join whoever I want at any point in the season?

    I don't know, it's an unusual case.
    Surprised to hear that about Athgarvan - what's the long term plan? Are they intending to build up with a juvenile structure and field adult teams again in the future?

    I can't speak for Athgarvan here but I know from my own club that a lot of underage players in our village are ending up playing with Naas. I'm only speculating here but I would say Athgarvan might be losing out to Sarsfields, Moorefield and to a lesser extent Kilcullen.

    There is no parish rule in Kildare which can be a hindrance sometimes.

    Times are tough for the small rural GAA club at the moment but Two Mile House have shown what can be achieved.
