has put the implementation any new policies in soccer on hold.

It was at that scheduled BFA meeting that club affiliates would have heard, discussed and possibly agreed to many of the recommendations of the committee looking into the restructuring of soccer in Bermuda -- a committee chaired by former BFA executive Calvin Smith.

Just what the recommendations are remains to be seen. But it is believed that streamlining procedures for the sport are among the many features.

BFA general secretary David Sabir said yesterday he was disappointed to see the shortage of club reps, but he vowed that steps would be taken to have the matter dealt with in due course as it was of vital importance to the future of the sport on the Island.

Sabir dismissed suggestions that the poor attendance on Monday demonstrated declining interest by the clubs who were so involved during meetings regarding leadership changes and other controversial areas.

"Perhaps more importantly, it may show that people are satisfied with the manner in which the BFA is functioning,'' said Sabir.

Sabir made it clear that the report will remain a priority of the BFA.

"We are very anxious to get on with the business regarding the report, especially since it concerns redeveloping and improving all areas of soccer.

We recognise that the best way of doing it is with the complete participation and input from the stakeholders of the sport, who are the clubs,'' said Sabir.

"We will set a new date and have it dealt with. However, we will endeavour to have 90 to 95 percent of the clubs in attendance.'' Also on Tuesday's agenda was the election of club representatives and a treasurer, following the resignation of Kent Bascome, who held the position for just over two years.
