(SKNFA) A historic Congress of the St. Kitts and Nevis Football Association (SKNFA)
unanimously confirmed the Nevis Football Association’s membership. The Annual
SKNFA Congress was convened via ZOOM on Sunday, August 30, 2020. The Nevis
Football Association was granted provisional membership to the SKNFA by the
Executive Committee on August 8, 2020. The Nevis Football Association submitted its
application for membership to the SKNFA following a bilateral meeting earlier in 2020
between the two bodies to discuss the development of football in Nevis.
President Anthony Johnson, who is in the final year of his four-year tenure and what is
expected to be his final year in the position of President of the SKNFA, hailed the
confirmation of the Nevis FA. He believes this is a step in the right direction for football
development in the Federation and one that makes the SKNFA truly representative of
its name.
Raymond Brantley, President of the Nevis FA expressed his appreciation to the
members for their overwhelming confirmation and said that he looks forward to working
with the SKNFA to contribute to the continued development of football in Nevis.
The membership provides the necessary structure for growth and football development
in Nevis through various programmes, which include but not limited to: coach education,
grassroots programme, referee development, youth football and financial and other
support for the Nevis FA.
