Chairman of the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Normilisation Committee Clinton Urling said yesterday that the mandate of the FIFA appointed body will be to implement constitutional reform for the GFF and its affiliates while crafting a properly regulated electoral procedure.

Speaking at their first press conference yesterday at the GFF headquarters since their appointment, Urling said:“Our mandate is to design a new GFF constitution and help the associates to either reform or renew theirs.

“It is also to create an electoral process and oversee the next elections while managing the day-to-day affairs of the GFF,” he added.

He noted that the current GFF constitution has a lot of gray areas and uncertainty within and that reform is required.

“The GFF is at a pivotal moment, this represents a crossroad. We could either choose to do things like the past and allow discord to rule the day or choose change.

“This is a last-ditch effort by FIFA and all stakeholders should work so this does not fail.
