GFF presents audited report at Extraordinary Congress

The Guyana Football Federation (GFF) successfully held their Extraordinary Congress on Saturday last at the National Sports Resource Centre on Woolford Avenue.

At the seemingly auspicious event, attendees saw the circulation and approval of an unqualified or clean audited financial report being presented within the constitutional timeline, which is one of the responsibilities of the Congress.
“The GFF’s Executive Committee is committed to transparency and good governance; and thus, in keeping with the Constitution, each member of the GFF was given the opportunity to honour their constitutional responsibility and obligation to scrutinize the audited financial report and raise their concerns at the Congress”, said GFF President, Wayne Forde, in an invited comment.
The audited financial report for the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) is expected to be published on the GFF’s website and shared with sponsors, partners, Government of Guyana, and other key stakeholders.
The main objectives of the congress were: to present the 2018 Independent Audited Financial Report, to present the investments made in 2018 under the various categories: technical development, competition, capacity building, etc; to present the 2019 Expense Budget, and to present the Forecast for 2020.
According to GFF President Wayne Forde, “The extraordinary congress became necessary after the auditors were unable to complete their fieldwork in time for the Constitutional Ordinary Congress, which was held on May 25, 2019.”
