The Central Council meeting which held on 23 March, 2019 decided that AICF’s focus is not on punishment but on enforcing discipline and promoting talent. Considering the lapse of time, financial difficulty expressed by players, and the primary objectives of AICF, the Central Council has decided those players who are interested in re-registration with AICF should be permitted to re-register if they tender written apology and give an undertaking that they will henceforth abide by the existing bye-laws/rules of the AICF.
