Ministry of Sport gives $$ to assist W/Cup build up
By: Shaun Fuentes (TTFF).
The Ministry of Sport has handed over a cheque of TT$150,000 to the Trinidad and Tobago Football Federation to assist in the preparations of the National Senior Team for the 2010 World Cup qualifying campaign.
At a media briefing hosted by the Ministry on Friday, Minister of Sport Gary Hunt said he became aware that the TTFF was forced to put off a proposed training camp in Scotland because of a lack of funding and felt it was necessary for the Ministry to step in and assist.
TTFF Special Advisor Jack Warner said that the assistance was appreciated and that efforts were ongoing to have the T&T team play a couple warm up matches before facing El Salvador on August 12. It is likely that T&T will travel to Venezuela for an international friendly there as well as one against Ecuador or another South American opposition.
Latapy, also present at the briefing, mentioned the need for T&T to the best preparations possible.
"I was quite pleased with the level I saw in St Kitts but obviously it is our intention to play against stronger opponents and to see how we do at that level. So in saying that we will try to play against stronger teams in the near future as we continue to get ready for El Salvador," Latapy said.
T&T defeated St Kitts 3-2 last Saturday and is expected to resume training on July 23.

I for one who's usually highly critical of the government's usual hesitance to act - applaud MOS on coming forward with an additional $150k.
TTFF said they were short $300k for the Scottish tour, so TTFF gives them half and it's up to the TTFF to come up with the next half - whether it goes towards any tour (since it's too late for Scotland) or whatever it's used for is now out of the MOS hands.
TTFF is responsible from here on in.

Does the TTFF do anything to raise money except beg? Why can't they be proactive when it comes to raising funds for our football programs? I have never heard about a single fundraisng venture put forward by the TTFF.

Coop'slike you miss Eman's thread with the amount of money the TTFF recieve within the last 8 months or so. Is over $15 000 000 they get where that? We eh do nothing to spend that. Plus back when JW rob the players (the time after the WC, not to be confused with the other times) he said that part of the adidas money was allocated to the 2010 campaign. So don't come down on the Government, they does do more than enough.

I love mi football but the TTFF is a private enterprise and I hate the fact that my tax dollars going to an organisation that does not have to account for how they spending donations or sponsorship
if yuh private and not accoutable den yuh should function with yuh own money, bmobile and adidas is fine if they willing but government should never get involved with this kind of business, the appearance and likelihood of corruption is too high

Well said bredder!! the govt can't get involved in the federation business, that is grounds for a fifa ban, so why the hell the govt givin dem $$$.
they suppose tuh get funding from sponsors, not the govt. the gate recipts, the sponsorship money and TV rights is all the money they need tuh stay afloat. @ least that's what they do in other countries, especially here in the U.S.!
this is rediculus.
