FIFA/CONCACAF joint mission for Guyana this week
Representatives from the world governing body for football, Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) and the Confederation of North, Central American and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) are expected in Guyana this week to meet with the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) and other stakeholders in an effort to bring an end to the impasse between the Federation and the Georgetown Football Association (GFA).

The visit of the combined team would have been prompted by the ongoing Court matter instituted by the GFA against the GFF and which has resulted in the polarisation of aspects of football for more than a year in Guyana.
The FIFA / CONCACAF team will comprise CONCACAF President Mr. Jeffrey Webb, Lawyer Mr. Bruce Blake, Director of Public Affairs Ms. Felicitas Colombo, and FIFA’s Mr. Thierry Regenass and Mr. Marco Leal.
The team will meet with the relevant parties and, as stated in a letter from FIFA, the aim is to find an amicable and prompt resolution to the present matter. The meetings will be held on Thursday.
