All members of CONCACAF are expected to attend the symposium which aims to provide members with information on effective football administration and governance processes.

The release stated that Urling’s presentation “will focus on the GFF as a case study and will chronicle the experiences of the Normalisation Committee since being appointed by FIFA in October 2014.

“It will give participants insights into what the GFF situation was a year ago that necessitated FIFA’s intervention with the imposition of a Normalisation Committee and It will provide a window into the management principles and measures implemented (by the Normalisation Committee) in executing its mandate of bringing stability to football governance in Guyana,” the release stated.

Deidre Davis, General Secretary of the GFF, will accompany Urling to the symposium.
