GFF to stage Extraordinary Congress Saturday

The Guyana Football Federation [GFF] will stage an Extraordinary Congress on Saturday with the objective of adopting the entity’s 2018 audited financial statements.

According to documents seen by this publication, the forum will be used to officially scrutinize and possibly pass the GFF’s 2018 audited financial statements.

The GFF was unable to present the financial statements at its Ordinary Congress which was held on May 25th at the Arthur Chung Convention Centre, Liliendaal.

However, two significant resolutions were passed at the forum the main announcement being that the investigation into the switched 2012 Mexico World Cup Qualifier did not discover any evidence of criminal misconduct by the then Executive Committee.

The other significant resolution that was unanimously passed was the amendment of Article 10 [b] of the federation’s constitution. The initial statute stated that the Eight Elite League Clubs would form part of the GFF’s membership.

Instead that was corrected to the Elite League Clubs will form part of the membership, fixing the flaw which occurs when clubs are relegated and subsequently promoted.
