FIFA lifts ban on All Indian Football Federation…

Published

on

FIFA has lifted the suspension imposed on the All India Football Federation (AIFF) earlier this month for undue third-party influence, world football’s governing body said on Friday.

The initial problem started with the overstaying of the former AIFF President without holding an election and the Committee of Administration did not follow the instruction given by the FIFA and High Court.

The lifting of the ban will enable the U-17 Women’s World Cup, which was scheduled to be held in India from October 11 to 30, to be held in the country as planned.

“The FIFA Council Bureau has decided to lift the ban imposed on the All India Football Federation (AIFF) due to unauthorized third party influence,” FIFA said in a statement.

“This decision has been taken following confirmation to FIFA that the administration period of the Committee of Administrators constituted to take over the powers of the AIFF Executive Committee has ended and the AIFF administration has regained full control of the day-to-day affairs of the AIFF.

“Consequently, the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup 2022 scheduled to be held from 11-30 October 2022 will be held in India as planned,” FIFA said it and the AFC will continue to monitor the situation and support the AIFF in holding its elections on time.

By

Sri Lanka Rugby has confirmed the appointment of former France international and seasoned rugby sevens coach Thierry Janeczek on a six-month contract to lead the national sevens team in preparation for the Asian Games in Aichi, Nagoya later this year.

Janeczek, who arrives in Colombo on March 20, will observe the two legs of the BogoLiv Union Pay International SLR Sevens Series before returning in April to formally begin his coaching programme. His initial contract runs for six months, with the possibility of extension based on the team’s performance at the Asian Games.

At 66, Janeczek brings decades of experience to the role. A former flanker with three caps for France, he made his mark in the sevens format, representing his country at the Rugby World Cup Sevens in 1993. He later coached the French national sevens team from 1996 to 2010, guiding them through more than 100 international tournaments and securing notable victories, including France’s first-ever international final win at the Paris Sevens in 2005.
His coaching résumé includes developing over 50 international players, training more than 100 certified coaches, and achieving Olympic success by leading France’s U18 team to gold at the 2014 Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China.

Inquiry Launched Over Bloomfield’s Controversial Declaration

Published

By

Sri Lanka Cricket has moved swiftly to launch an inquiry into Bloomfield Cricket and Athletic Club’s declaration during their Major Super Eight encounter against Moors Sports Club at Colts Grounds. The decision, which has been branded “unsporty” by critics, saw Bloomfield declare at 239 for 6 despite trailing on first innings, leaving Moors a modest chase of 147 runs. Moors completed the task comfortably, winning by four wickets in just 33 overs and reclaiming their place at the top of the table.

The declaration has raised serious questions about the spirit of competition, prompting SLC to summon captains, coaches, managers, and players from both sides for an official hearing this evening. At the heart of the probe lies a crucial issue: was Bloomfield’s move a bold tactical gamble or a breach of cricketing integrity?

With domestic cricket’s credibility now under the spotlight, the outcome of this inquiry could have significant consequences for the game in Sri Lanka, setting a precedent for how declarations and match strategies are judged in the future.
