South Wales and Monmouthshire Football Association

Minute books

The series consists of bound volumes containing minutes of the meetings of the South Wales and Monmouthshire Football Association, 1892-1962. Included are minutes of the Association's regular General Committee meetings, together with meetings of the committees and sub-committees beneath the Association, such as the annual 'Rules' meeting, Finance Committee, Emergency Committee, League Sanction Committee and various sub-committees. From 1894 onwards, the minute books also contain the Association's accounts with details of both receipts and expenditure. Most of the minute books also contain details of fixtures and results for the cups run by the Association, lists of affiliated leagues, clubs and referees, and information about them. The earlier volumes contain mostly handwritten minutes, but the later ones have mostly typed minutes pasted into the volumes. The volumes also include letters notifying members of various meetings, some minutes of meetings of the Football Association of Wales, some newspaper cuttings, and election forms for electing vice-presidents and committee members.

Minute book

The 1906-1907 season was Charles Axtell's last as Secretary of the South Wales and Monmouthshire Football Association, with Mr. H. Hart taking over his duties. As a result, both secretaries kept separate minute books for the 1906-1907 season. As most of the minutes were in typescript form by this time, most of the contents of the two minute books for 1906-1907 are the same, with some different notes by the respective secretaries. Charles Axtell's book also contains some minutes of the Football Association of Wales meetings.
