  • Strategic Plan 2020+ B E R M U D a F O O T B a L L a S S O C I a T I O N
    STRATEGIC PLAN 2020+ B E R M U D A F O O T B A L L A S S O C I A T I O N " G A M E F O R L I F E " INTRODUCTION It is often said, “a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” As with any journey worth taking, a plan should be the guide, the steps should be measured, and the purpose should be clear. The Bermuda Football Association (BFA) has a long tradition of inspiring, cultivating and creating leaders on and off the playing field. And though this is and always will be a never-ending journey for the BFA, we are committed to making sure the steps taken benefit all those that look to the Association for guidance and leadership. The Executive Council, in collaboration with stakeholders, developed this Strategic Plan to be used as our guide for the next four years. This plan is built aroundthe core values upon which the Association operates; good governance, integrity, transparency, and teamwork to name a few. The Strategic Plan 2020+ takes into consideration and further develops many of the elements outlined in our previous Strategic Plan 2016. The goals and objectives throughout this plan summarize the journey before us and indicates how our steps will be measured. Ultimately, the intended outcome and success of this Strategic Plan is dependant on the participation of all stakeholders. The perseverance among our Executive Council, Full Member Clubs and Associations, the Bermuda Government, sponsors, and the entire football family prove that with great teamwork and effort our goals can be achieved.

Although I have been in remission for 6 yrs my kidneys were affected to the point that they completely failed in 2012 when I suffered a bout of pneumonia. It was then that I was put on dialysis and the transplant list. My life then changed dramatically. I entered hospital to have an operation so I could commence Dialysis 3 times a week.

Suite de la série des articles pas sympas, aujourd'hui le PSG. Vaste sujet... humour et second degré toujours de rigueur ! (NDLR : cet article fait partie d'une série d'articles au ton décalé et résolument second degré. A lire avec précaution et humour !) Un beau cadeau empoisonné que de confier à quelqu'un la rédaction d'un article pas sympa sur le PSG. Outre les représailles des hordes de hooligans pullulants au Parc des Princes auxquelles je m'expose, dresser toute une liste de tout ce qui nous fait rire avec le PSG équivaut à rédiger un ouvrage équivalent à « Guerre et Paix » de Léon Tolstoï. Pour les incultes qui traîneraient par hasard sur racingstub.com (ce ne peut être qu'un hasard tant ce site est un bouillon de culture fréquenté que par des gens intellectuellement supérieurs), « Guerre et Paix » est un très gros livre avec plein de pages et pas beaucoup d'images, destiné à caler les meubles extrêmement bancals, ou bien à faire frimer Gary Kasparov qui est capable de le réciter par coeur. Indéniablement plus efficace pour draguer les filles que de rédiger l'apologie de Francis Llacer. Tu m'étonnes qu'après ça je ne trouve pas de copine... Cette introduction aura eu néanmoins l'immense mérite de nous enseigner une chose que j'ignorais avant de rédiger cet article.
