GFF statement on the Recent Developments at FIFA

May 30, 2015 Sports

The GFF is dismayed and disconcerted with the events of the past few days that are occurring in global football and in particular in our confederation CONCACAF. While CONCACAF is still a strong organization, those members who have brought the credibility of the organization into disrepute have disappointed us.
As a country and a region, we must ensure strict governance and transparency in football administration at home, regionally and at FIFA. The Normalization Committee (NC) has started this process and has adopted a zero tolerance approach towards any unethical and improper act at the GFF.
We will continue to work towards improving our systems of transparency and accountability and to ensuring that all our stakeholders adhere to those rules. Allegations of corruption have always dogged the sport at the global level and it is important that all FIFA Members ensure sound financial oversight and transparency systems to discourage corrupt practices.
It is our hope that the US Department of Justice indictment and investigations will act as a deterrent going forward, serving as a stern lesson and reminder to those who might be tempted to engage in unscrupulous and venal acts in the future.
