Ferwafa can do better

The Rwanda Football Federation (Ferwafa) was this week at the centre of a controversy that threatened the integrity of the National Football League. They, for whatever reason, decided that a scheduled match between top clubs Rayon Sports and APR would not take place tomorrow, but on a later date; and despite lack of consent from the clubs, Ferwafa had dictated this postponement. Hadn’t Rayon Sports threatened to quit the league altogether, it is very obvious that Ferwafa would have gone on with its baseless decision – and from what I’ve heard, it’s not the first time such illegal rulings have been made by Ferwafa. When a game is postponed in such circumstances, the usual case is that the smaller clubs are the ones that suffer. Why? Because the bigger clubs are probably behind such a move.
