GFF moves to have greater control over tournaments

In an effort to regulate and control football the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) has engaged the support of the Guyana Police Force (GPF) to ensure permits for tournaments are only granted following the GFF’s approval.

According to an official release from the GFF, “This entails a promoter getting an approval letter from the GFF, which is given to the police in the respective division in which the tournament is being held before the police authorizes the said tournament. This initiative follows the actions of some who coordinate tournaments without the secured prize money and other logistical arrangements in place and without the clear guideline and oversight of the federation.”
