By the end of 2025 it will be required that all clubs within the auspices of the FAI will at minimum have a FAI Club Mark entry level. Club Mark entry level is a very simple straightforward process that more than likely is in place within every club but not officially recognised. First tier entry level ensures that there is appropriate governance and administration within the club.
