The meeting was constructive in unpacking any differences and misunderstandings which may have arisen relating to the bidding for and hosting of COSAFA events.
Those misunderstandings have been ironed out through transparent and open discussion and an agreement on a new way forward has been reached.
Common ground and a way of working together into the future through collaboration between the two organisations has been established, which positively impacts tournaments already set into the COSAFA calendar, as well as future events, wherever they may be held.
