Between 1882 and 1924, Ireland was represented by a single national football team organised by the Belfast-based Irish Football Association (IFA). In 1920, Ireland was partitioned into Northern Ireland and the Irish Free State. Immediately after Partition, the Association in Dublin styled itself the "Football Association of Ireland", but changed to the "Football Association of the Irish Free State" ("FAIFS") following its admission to FIFA in 1924, at which time its representative team called itself the "Irish Free State". However after 1936, they reverted to the designation "Football Association of Ireland".
