Delighted to announce Tulla United AFC have been awarded the FAI Club Mark One Star Player Development award. The One Star award recognises Tulla United as a well run club with best practice in their governance, management and administration. This award builds on Tulla's previous Club Mark Entry Award and we are now the first club club in Clare to receive the One Star certification!

The characteristics of an FAI Player Development Centre

✓ A club has a FAI recognised player development plan

✓ A club has a FAI recognised coaching structure

✓ A club works with a FAI Coaching Mentor

✓ A club has demonstrated best practice in child welfare and safeguarding

✓ A club has a high standard in club governance

This was only possible with the hard work of the Tulla committee and our coaches who have worked to achieve the standard. The club have committed through its volunteers to maintain these standards into the future to provide the best environment for girls and boys to learn and play football.

Thanks to the FAI for their work and our own FAI RDO Denis Hynes in particular.

The club will be holding an event in Cragg over the summer with the FAI team to celebrate the award
