THE INTER AMATEUR SOCCER COMPETITION
HAD ITS BIRTH IN 1959,THROUGH A SPORTING INITIATIVE OF TWO GENTLEMEN-MR PAUL BORG INGUANEZ AND THE LATE MR SAVIOR PRIVITERA,WHO DECIDED TO FORM AN AMATEUR FOOBALL ASSOCIATION WHICH COULD CATER FOR AMATEUR TEAMS HAILED FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE ISLAND.THIS HAD TO BE DONE AFTER DR H COPPERSTONE MD. PRESIDENT OF THE MALTA FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION,HAD DECIDED TO LEAVE OUT THE 62 AMATEUR CLUBS WHICH WERE AFFILIATED WITH THE M.F.A. BECAUSE OF THE FINANCIAL SITUATION IN 1959.
NATURALLY, SOME DIFFICULTIES WERE PREVALENT AT THE BEGINNING,BUT WITH THE HELP OF OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS,WHO SHOWED A SENSE OF GOODWILL, ENCHANCED THE EFFORTS PREVIOSLY SHOWN BY THE ABOVE TWO GENTLEMEN AND THE SUCCCEEDED IN SURMOUNTING EVERY OBSTACLE.TODAY THIS WELL ORGANIZED ASSOCIATION OWES ITS EXISTENCE TO THESE SPIRITED GENTLEMEN.
THE I.A.S.C. ESTABLISHED ITS OWN STATUTE INCORPORATING COMPETITION RULES,STANDING ORDERS AND LAWS OF THE GAME,WHICH WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT,IS ONE OF THE MOST DEMOCRATIC STATUTES EVER HELD BY AN AMATEUR ASSOCIATION.
THE COMPETITIONS HELD BY THIS ORGANISATION ARE THE LEAGUE FOR THE FIRST AND SECOND DIVISIONS RESPECTIVELY,AMATEUR-CUP,INTER/LEAGUE,KNOCK-OUT,COCA-COLA CUP,AND CONDAUCT SHIELD.
THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE IS MADE UP OF THREE NEUTRAL MEMBERS WHO OCCUPY THE POSTS OF PRESIDENT,SEGRETARY,AND TREASURER WHO ALL HAVE THEIR ASSISTANTS IN THIS SUPREME BODY OF THE ASSOCIATION.FURTHERMORE,THE I.A.S.C.COUNCIL CONSISTS OF A DELEGATE FROM EACH OF THE 18 AFFILIATED CLUBS.SINCE ITS FOUNDATION (1959) ALL I.A.S.C. COMPETITIONS WERE HELD AT THE INDEPENDENCE ARENA IN FLORIANA,WHICH WAS A SUITABLE GROUND WITHIN EASY REACH FROM ALL CORNERS OF MALTA.BUT IN 1979 AFTER 20 YEARS,THE I.A.S.C. CHANGED ITS VENUE TO THE ST.JOSEPH FOOTBALL GROUND IN ST VENERA.HOW EVER,IN 1998,AFTER ANOTHER 18 YEARS,THE I.A.S.C. CHANGED ITS VENUE YET AGAIN,TO THE LA SALLE COLLEGE IN VITTORIOSA.FOR THESE LAST TWO SEASONS I.A.S.C HAD AGAIN TO CHANGE VENUE TO ST LUCIA FOOTBALL GROUND.FROM SEASON 2006/07 I.S.S.C. HAVE AGAIN MOVED TO THE THE NEW TARXIEN RAINBOWS SYNTETIC GROUND.
SINCE IT WAS FOUNDED IN 1959, THE I.A.S.C.WAS AFFILIATED,AND STILL IS,WITH THE MALTA FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION AND FROM BEGINNING,THE I.A.S.C.DID ITS ENDEAVOUR TO PROMOTE THE AMATEUR GAME OF FOOTBALL IN MALTA AND THE IMPORTANT ROLE THIS HAS IN THE LOCAL SPORTING ARENA.
AS EVERY ASSOCIATION HAS ITS ROUGH DAYS IN ORGANISING ITSELF.THE I.A.S.C. WAS NO EXEPTION.HOWEVER WITH A HARD WORKING COMMITTEE AT ITS HELM,ABLY ASSISTED BY EVERY COUNCIL MEMBER,THE INTER AMATEUR SOCCER COMPETITION NOWADAYS CAN BOAST TO BE ONE OF THE BEST AMATEUR ASSOCIATIONS IN MALTA.
