The Northern Ireland Manager's Federation(NIMF) (AllianceID: 11548) was founded to provide a forum for managers from Northern Ireland or those from elsewhere who train Northern Irish players. It currently has approximately 45 members, and organises both an internal cup for members as well as a federation challenge, known as the Buckfast Challenge, which they nearly always lose.
The NIMF Cup
The NIMF Cup is an internal competition for members of the federation, run in the latter half of the season when most if not all have been eliminated from the national cup.
The Buckfast Challenge
Previous winners have included Ireland and Japan, though NIMF did manage to secure a fluke win against Scotland once.
