29Jul10 PFA Information Tour
"Two of our Board Directors are currently traveling to some states with the view to get States involvement in
the decision making of the PFA Board. The Board acknowledges the many difficult tasks ahead.
The involvement of the Leagues or State associations is vital to the successful achievement of its goals for
the future of pétanque in this country.
Our first meeting with the South Australian Clubs (Saturday 24 July), achieved, amongst other things, to
refute the common belief that State Leagues/Associations are not recognize by PFA."
