BFA President Mussenden Releases Statement

IslandStats.com

The Bermuda Football Association’s President Larry Mussenden has released the following statement regarding the three full time members of staff that have been informed that their services as full time staff will no longer be required after May 31st.

The statement reads,

Dear All,

Several years ago the Bermuda Government awarded the Association a grant amounting to $3 million per year for a period of five years which enabled the Association to expand its operation both in terms of infrastructure and personnel. Unfortunately, that amount has not been realized and as such, the Government Grant funding was reduced significantly since 2009 to a level for the upcoming year that can no longer support the current employee levels within the Association.

During recent meetings, the BFA’s Executive Council Members discussed the current financial status of the Association and the impact it is having on the operation of the Association at present and over the next year and beyond.

After full consultation and examination of all the options, the Executive Council has taken the regrettable step of making some employee positions redundant as of May 31st, 2012. While the Association will not discuss the particulars of this decision we must state categorically that the decision in no way reflects on our staff members personally or their performance. It merely reflects the reality of our current financial situation. We wish circumstances were different so that this decision was not necessary.

Looking forward the Association has begun the process of restructuring and realigning all job functions with the remaining staff as well as the Executive Council Members. There will be some challenges as we readjust programs, goals and objectives with the current level of Government funding and other resources available to football. We remain steadfast in our resolve to do all we can “For the Good of the Game.”

Sincerely yours,

Larry Mussenden
President
