WPL INCEPTION  - DEVELOPMENT

· WFA had to form league or risk lose international status

· Formation of League badly managed

· Alienations of clubs – court procedures (Newport) forced clubs

· WFA had little or no interest in League or its progression

MEDIA PERCEPTION

· Poor beginning didn’t help

· No ‘result service’ midweek

· Swansea/ Cardiff / Newport / Wrexham  England …… destabilises League

· WFA continued insistence of clubs playing in Welsh Cup

PLAYERS / MANAGER PROGRESSION

· Coaching courses second-to-none

· Players ……  many have gone on to play in football league

· Clubs – community-based  …. very positive

INFRASTRUCTURE – PYRAMID SYSTEM

· Grounds – lots of work to do …. playing surface
