Introduction
The Premier Soccer League (PSL) is an amateur football league in Ireland. It was founded in Dublin on the 23rd May 1954 to provide football for people who are amateurs, playing in a competitive spirit.
The PSL currently has over 100 clubs competing in its various divisions. The top division is the Premier A, followed by the Premier B, Premier C, and Premier D. There are also regional divisions for Dublin, Cork, and Limerick.
The PSL is administered by the Amateur Football League (AFL). The AFL is a voluntary organization that is responsible for the running of the league, including setting the rules, organizing the fixtures, and appointing referees.
