The NI Football League are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Chairman Adrian Teer.

Adrian served the Northern Ireland Football League (NIFL) with distinction as Chair of the Board of Directors from November 2013 to May 2018.

Adrian was also one of the founding fathers of the newly established NIFL company, bravely taking on the custodianship of the second oldest football league in the world during a dark period and breaking free of the shackles of the past, to plot a new ambitious future for top level club football in Northern Ireland.

Adrian’s role was not restricted to the NIFL Board Chair, he was also the club representative for his beloved Glenavon FC on the Premiership Management Committee (between 2013-2018) and also willingly put himself forward for various sub-committees and working groups, always with the view of enhancing and progressing the game and the league.

Everyone connected with the NI Football League pass on our heartfelt condolences to Adrian’s family, friends and everyone connected with Glenavon Football Club at this sad time.
