The Football Association of Zambia has revealed how it will share the cake from its K42.8 million 2016 budget.
The budget was unanimously adopted at the deferred FAZ annual general meeting held at the Government Complex in Lusaka on Saturday morning after it was earlier rejected at the elective AGM in March because it did not have a breakdown of any allocation for referees.
The equivalent of US$100,0000 from the US$1 million SuperSport TV deal will go to referees officiating in the lower leagues.
Meanwhile, Division 1 teams will get K268,800, K480,000 will go to Division 2 sides , Division 3 teams will share K 303, 200 while the women’s league will be allocated K98,000.
And FAZ says they hope to have the amended constitution ready by the next AGM in March, 2017.
One of the items will be to reduce the electoral college from 300 to 100.
“We made a presentation to FIFA they have given us an extension of up to match next year,” FAZ president Andrew Kamanga said.
“By Monday next week, we should be able to send the draft constitution to the councilors for feedback so that we can send the recommendations to FIFA.”
The most boring institution at moment. We miss Kalusha.
This is the transparency I was talking about, during Great Galu era such things were done in a hotel bar in RSA were most of the budget was routed to Galu’s trophy wife company…why shouldn’t this organization be self sufficient; it can triple its budget if it introduced better jersey designs by a renowned manufacturer…speak to Armour and re-introduce the green shirt.
Jay Jay I agree with you. This is the first we are hearing money being shared with all the leagues. It’s progressive.
A good start. Hoping to see more inclusiveness in football administration.
New FAZ of KAMANGA , FAKE, KUWAYAWAYAFYE. I MISS KALU.
