Wed 13th Oct 2010 | IT & Technology

The Irish Football Association has launched its first online game on its Facebook page, in a bid to find new ways to interact with fans.

It is a ‘keepy-up’ game, created by consultancy firm Just NI, allows its fans to play against friends.

The Irish FA already has an online shop on its Facebook page.

The organisation looks after the interests of the game of football in Northern Ireland, from grassroots through to the domestic league and International teams.

Geoff Wilson, head of marketing and communications at the Irish FA told Marketing Magazine: "We are always looking for new ways to develop our online presence. This new game is just one way of driving fans to visit our page over and over again."
