GFF issues statement on the organisation of the international futsal festival

Dec 15, 2018 Sports

 

Georgetown -: In a statement issued yesterday, The Guyana Football Federation has indicated that it has been planning an international futsal tournament for the past six months and was pleased to sign a binding contract with clear roles and responsibilities with the Kashif & Shanghai Organisation as the coordinators of the event.
The rationale for this partnership is three-fold the release informed:
1. In order to deliver a top class event at this time of year, the GFF needed expert, third party support because of staffing and logistical requirements related to the GFF-Stag Super 16 Year-End Tournament.
2. Under its “One Team, One Dream” mission statement, the GFF is committed to working with all football stakeholders in the promotion and development of the game, especially with those stakeholders who possess specific expertise and a positive track record in their respected disciplines.
3. It is standard practice in the sports world for national or international governing bodies to engage and partner with third parties and service providers for the delivery and organisation of tournaments, competitions, leagues and other programmes.
Kashif & Shanghai have an unrivalled track record in the delivery of successful football tournaments in Guyana and we have every confidence that they will be the perfect partner for the GFF to stage a memorable and popular futsal tournament.
GFF President Wayne Forde said: “It might be useful for the football fraternity to recognise how fractured we are as a family, which certainly does not serve the best interests of the game. It is, therefore, my goal to seek to build consensus, cooperation, respect and compliance, and to set out with clarity a direction that every stakeholder can play a part in. This can only benefit football. Infighting and bitterness can only hold us back from our aim to develop the game.”
