The Trinidad and Tobago Football Association is pleased to announce that its President, David John-Williams, has been appointed member of the FIFA Players’ Status Committee.

The letter of appointment was sent to John-Williams by FIFA Secretary General Fatma Samoura on Wednesday and announced by FIFA today.

“We are pleased to inform you that you have been appointed member of the Players’ Status Committee. We wish you our sincere congratulations on this appointment,” Samoura stated in the letter.

“We wish you great success and enjoyment in this role at FIFA and look forward to welcoming you soon to Zurich,” she added.

John-Williams gave a brief reaction, saying, “I am pleased, honoured and humbled by this appointment and the opportunity given to me. I remain devoted to serving the game and I will continue to do this to the best of my ability.”

The FIFA Players’ Status Committee (PSC) shall set up and monitor compliance with the Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players and determine the status of Players for various FIFA competitions. Its powers of jurisdiction are governed by the Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players. The relevant decisions are published on FIFA.com .

The 21-man committee will be chaired by South African Raymond Hack. The full committee can be seen here (http://www.fifa.com/about-fifa/committees/committee=1882032/index.html)

John-Williams appointment is for the period 2017-2021.

“I am humbled by this appointment. It presents me with a chance to have an input and be part of the work being done by FIFA to develop the game worldwide and I feel privileged to be part of it. I am definitely looking forward to making a contribution,” Yorke told TTFA Media.

The Players Status Committee is a good fit for DJW. It focuses on an area in which he has demonstrated experience. Makes sense.

This man couldn't organise a stag party in a brothel. Do they even bother with a pretence of hiring on merit? They lack the shame to even attempt it these days I guess.

He can organize and run a proper national program but he's corrupt and sold out, so he won't be doing that, that's not his agenda

He deliberately put in clauses to sabotage negotiations .... his goal was to sabotage our gold cup, Caribbean cup and wc cup campaigns
