IDFC runs throughout the year on a Wednesday afternoon as an alternative competitive football opportunity to BUCS representational football. The competition is compiled of two highly competitive leagues, both made up of ten teams, with the top teams in each league eventually battling it out for the IDFC trophy.
Recruitment for players will commence in late-September/early-October by the department team captains. You can, however, join at any point throughout the year.
