President of Treasure Beach Football Club, Paul Bernard, has sounded the alarm over delays in promised funding from Professional Football Jamaica Limited (PFJL) to Jamaica Premier League (JPL) clubs, warning that the financial difficulties facing teams could jeopardise preparations and even participation in the upcoming season.
With the new JPL season fast approaching, Bernard says clubs are struggling under mounting financial pressure after receiving only a fraction of the funding pledged by the league's governing board.
“Each club has a member on that board, and they were promised $740,000 per month, which is a nine-month competition. This would bring us to $6.6 million, and we only received three payments of $400,000 each,” Bernard said.
