The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has made a significant decision to dissolve all of its sub-committees with immediate effect. This decision was reached during the first meeting of the newly-elected Executive Council held on Monday, October 9, 2023, in Accra.
The move to dissolve the sub-committees is part of the GFA’s efforts to restructure and rejuvenate its operational framework. While this decision impacts various aspects of the association’s functions, it is seen as a necessary step to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the organization.
However, it’s important to note that not all committees will cease their operations. The statement released by the GFA clarifies that the four independent committees and the two standing committees will continue their work until new committees are formed. These committees include the Ethics Committee, Elections Committee, Disciplinary Committee, Appeals Committee, Referees Committee, and Player Status Committee.
The Ghana Football Association expressed its gratitude to the members of these committees for their significant contributions to the development and growth of football in Ghana. The dissolution of the sub-committees and the maintenance of essential committees mark a new phase in the GFA’s ongoing efforts to strengthen and evolve the administration of football in the country.
