On Friday 18th May 2012, the FUFA Executive Committee convened, discussed and passed reforms that will lead to fundamental amendments within the FUFA Constitution.
Of recent a lot of human, time and financial resources have been directed at non-football developmental activities by different stakeholders. In order to direct the ship, the FUFA Executive Committee in consultation with FIFA resolved to undertake major reforms in the way FUFA and its members are managed. The proposed reforms include among others the following;
1. The General Assembly
- The District Football Associations are to be replaced by the 8 FUFA Regional Football Associations as direct members of FUFA
- District Football Associations will become members of the FUFA Regional Football Associations
- Each of the 16 FUFA Super League clubs (Not USLL) to become a direct Member of the FUFA General Assembly
- The FUFA Big and the Regional League clubs to be represented in the General Assembly
- Only 6 Special interest associations to be retained.
- The size of the General Assembly will be reduced by more than a half of the current size.

Reducing the size of the assembly will provide a balanced platform for the decisions of the Assembly inclusive of elections of the FUFA president and create an assembly which is not elastic with the creation and addition of new District Football Associations. The new development will also ensure an environment that gives quality debate and better facilitation on top of better supervision of the FUFA Excom. The proposed new arrangements will further empower the regions with more decentralized football development responsibilities.
2. Executive Committee
It is further intended that the FUFA Executive Committee be reduced from the current 21 members to 13 inclusive of the President, 3 Vice Presidents and 9 members. Specialized Vice Presidents will no longer exist as their work will be taken over by professional and full-time employees at the federation.
Prior to the realization of this great dream, the FUFA Executive committee will approve each of the respective member constitution and mandatory clauses will be required to be included.
The FUFA Executive committee will table the proposed amendments to the General Assembly for debate and adoption into a new constitution.
Some of the provisions will be required to be of immediate effect before the new season begins while others will become effective at the expiry of the term of the current FUFA Excom.
In conclusion, the FUFA Executive committee is aware of the challenges to complete these reforms and the individual benefits of the current system but we have voted to redirect the currently wasted energies and resources into football.
