IMPORTANT NOTICE
It has come to our attention that certain tournament organizers, who were granted permission by the JKFA, have unfortunately been found in violation of the established rules and regulations laid out by both the AIFF and JKFA. While the Jammu and Kashmir Football Association (JKFA) is wholeheartedly supportive of endeavors that promote football and foster events and competitions, it is of paramount importance that these endeavors uphold the safety of players and adhere to the highest standards.
We want to make it clear that we grant permission to eligible organizers who demonstrate transparency and impartiality in their operations. Regrettably, we've noticed instances where certain organizers have not fully adhered to these principles. We would like to remind everyone that we had previously cautioned tournament organizers against allowing participation from clubs that are currently involved in legal proceedings / court cases. Unfortunately, this caution has been disregarded by a few organizers.
The JKFA takes this violation seriously, as it not only sets a worrisome precedent but also undermines the authority of the All India Football Federation (AIFF). Let it be known that as per AIFF guidelines, only State/Member Associations have the mandate to grant permission for football tournaments.
District Football Associations (DAFs) do not possess the authority to do so.
We reiterate to all organizers the importance of adhering fully to the rules and regulations set forth by both AIFF and JKFA. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of granted permissions, rendering them null and void. Furthermore, we kindly request clubs from different DFAs to seek their respective DFAs permission before participating in tournaments held in other districts. Non-compliance with this requirement will result in necessary actions being taken as per the rules.
Sincerely,
Nazir Ahmad Andrabi
