The Wexford Branch was formed in 1969 when a group of interested individuals came together in an effort to establish a referees’ panel. The group comprised of : Nick Delaney(RIP), Joe Moloney, John Lappin( RIP), Tony Busher(RIP), Tommy Butler(RIP), Stan Kelly, Donal Sadler & Richard Kelly(RIP).
Having been accepted into the Irish Soccer Referees Society in 1970 the first Branch meeting was held in the CYMS Hall in Wexford on Monday the 30th September of that year with 13 members present from whom John Lappin( RIP) was elected as our first Chairman and Nick Delaney(RIP), elected as our first Secretary/ Treasurer.
From that date onwards the Branch has grown in strength and today has a membership of 62 who operate at all levels of the game including the Airtricity League in which Michelle O’Neill, Sean Grant & Brian Fenlon officiate.
