TIMES INT'L

Members of the recently appointed Electoral Committee of the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) had their first meeting on Tuesday at the GFF Section ‘K’ Campbellville headquarters in preparation for the upcoming GFF elections.
The meeting was convened to discuss the execution of supervisory roles for the upcoming GFF elections, which was part of an agreement reached during the FIFA/CONCACAF delegation  meeting early last month to bring a solution to impasse between GFF and the Georgetown Football Association (GFA).
The purpose of the inaugural meeting was to select the chairman and deputy chairman of the committee and to acquaint members with the guidelines in the FIFA Electoral Code and the GFF Constitution which will provide direction for the committee to effectively carry out its functions.
Also at the meeting the committee elected K. A. Juman Yassin, lawyer and president of the Guyana Olympic Association (GOA), as chairman, and Emily Dodson, lawyer and cricket official, as his deputy.
The other member of the three-person committee is Stephen Lewis, with Mark Waldron as the alternate. Lewis and Waldron are also lawyers. Also present at the initial meeting were president (acting) of the GFF Franklin Wilson, General Secretary Noel Adonis, and Deputy General Secretary George Rutherford.
