Despite participating at the CONCACAF Beach Football Qualifiers from February 20th-26th 2017 in the Bahamas, the Guyana Men’s National Beach Football Team, is yet to receive their remunerations from the Guyana Football Federation (GFF).

This was disclosed by members of the team, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

According to the players, “When we were in Barbados [for an earlier invitational tournament] we almost got put out of the hotel because the GFF didn’t have the funding. Each player was supposed to get about US$700, but they give us US$250 and said when we go to Bahamas we would get the rest and when we went to Bahamas, they didn’t give us anything.”
