For Greater Control Over Touring Teams

Local Success Abroad

(By "Tinker")

AMONG SEVERAL proposed alterations to the Rules of the Hongkong Football Association which the F.A. Council have put forward for con- sideration at the Annual General Meeting on Wednesday, next, are two which not only afford the F.A. greater control over future touring teams, but which, arising out of a spate just after Eastern's tour of Manila, should mean much to harmony in Hongkong.

similar rule in the F.A. eon- Highlights
