In a move to demonstrate its commitment to good governance, the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) Board has taken a decision to suspend the membership privileges of the parishes of Trelawny and St Thomas for failing to comply with a directive of Congress for all parish elections to have taken place by August 31, 2024.
The JFF, in a release on Thursday, stated that the suspension of membership privileges will remain until the parishes have their elections, and the process is satisfactory to the JFF Board.
It also pointed out that should the elections not be held by the next board meeting, then further actions will be considered if necessary.
This action was taken under the provisions of Article 16 (Member obligation) and Article 17 (Suspension) of the JFF Constitution.
“The JFF is committed to good governance and transparency and wants to ensure that the wider football membership is the beneficiary of that good governance,” the statement said.
The release also noted that the election for Trelawny has been set for October 12th, 2024.
