“Creating a Soccer Strategy” -A Response by the Northern Ireland Women’s Coalition September 8, 2010


From early 2002 a policy paper entitled, “Creating a Soccer Strategy” -A Response by the Northern Ireland Women’s Coalition.
“Creating a Soccer Strategy” were the conclusions of a ministerial advisory committee which was published in December 2001. The committee included amongst others Martin O’Neill, Sammy McIlroy, Bryan Hamilton, Gerry Armstrong and Billy Hamilton.
