Elections of the Football Federation of Sri Lanka (FFSL) are scheduled to be held in September, allowing Sri Lanka to participate in the Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) World Cup qualifiers.
Accordingly, the election is expected to be held before 16 September, in line with the recommendations proposed by FIFA.
Last month, FIFA and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) approved and included “Sri Lanka” in the official World Cup draw on the strict condition that the FFSL conduct its election at least 10 days prior to the World Cup match scheduled for 12 and 17 October.
Meanwhile, on 25 July, Minister of Sports and Youth Affairs Roshan Ranasinghe appointed a three-member committee to call for, and hold the FFSL elections.
