Tewarie wants clubs to run top-flight League

Se­ri­ous con­sid­er­a­tion is now be­ing giv­en to Tier 1 of the Trinidad and To­ba­go Foot­ball Pre­mier League (T&TPFL) be­ing tak­en out of the hands of the T&T Foot­ball As­so­ci­a­tion (TTFA) and man­aged by the clubs them­selves.

This comes af­ter eight months of no do­mes­tic foot­ball league and no idea of when the start will take place.

Speak­ing to Guardian Me­dia Sports on Sat­ur­day, Ni­rad Tewarie, chair­man of San Juan Jabloteh Foot­ball Club, lament­ed the pain of more than 400 young foot­ballers who are starved of mak­ing a liv­ing due to the non-func­tion­ing League. The League was ini­tial­ly set to kick off in Oc­to­ber, more than eight months af­ter it end­ed. How­ev­er, af­ter a start date of No­vem­ber 20 was giv­en, clubs were be­ing told oth­er­wise.
