I think this is a much needed moved by the JFF but I wonder how the various association will spend the money. Is this enough to help their programs grow?
The Board of Directors of the Jamaica Football Federation have accepted the recommendation of the General Secretary, Burchell Gibson, that all Parish Associations and National Confederations be given special attention to improve the efficiency of their respective administrative processes. Effective September 1, 2007 the Federation’s thirteen (13) Parish Associations and the four (4) Confederations will each receive a monthly subvention of J$20,000.00 to assist with local administrative activities.
The General Scretary will also conduct a survey within all local football secretariats to ascertain the various technological needs that exist as the Federation seeks to improve the technological capabilities of the Parish Associations and Confederations. In addition the Jamaica Football Federation will organise training sessions for Parish Associations and Confederations to improve the skills of local football secretariat personnel in electronic communication of information and management of data.
Jagga, while this may sound good on paper and a PR plug for the JFF; when you crunch the numbers this cannot stop a stale bread cart.
$20,000 /68 amounts to US$295 give ah take. What can that really do? How much fi two file folder, pens ah couple ream a copy paper? Don't mean to sound negative but reality a reality. JFF, fi come better.
