Amateur International Match Records,

The series consists mainly of typed Team Record Sheets dating from 1907 to 1939 and 1947 to 1955. Prior to 1939 they contain only records of Amateur International Matches involving Wales. Sheets from 1947 to 1955 also contain details of Youth International Matches, Final Youth International Trial Matches (North Wales v. South Wales), Final Amateur International Trial Matches, Amateur International Trial Matches (Reds v. Blues) and Amateur Representative matches (F.A.W. XI v. Welsh Universities XI). The Record Sheets contain spaces to record the locations of matches and the date, players' names and clubs, the result, goal scorers, the names of the referee and linesmen as well as their fees, the team attendant, attendance and gate receipts. Sheets prior to 1939 have been signed, dated and certified correct. These appear to be later transcripts, compiled [c. 1954]. The details on these earlier sheets are generally less complete, consisting mainly of the details of the Welsh team only. The folder also contains a sheet detailing the squad for the 1947-1948 International Youth Football Tournament, a few handwritten record sheets, newspaper cuttings and a single match programme. There is also a 'List of Amateur Internationals to 1939 with Cardiff Corinthians and Cardiff City'.
