The IFF Central Board decided in its last meeting, held on the 2nd of February 2010, to suspend the member associations which have not started to pay off their membership fee debts by the end of February 2010.
In accordance with the IFF Statutes § 25, all IFF member associations are entitle to pay their membership fees in time. Ukraine and India has neglected the payments and according to the decision will be suspended.
The IFF Juridical Regulation defines the following in Section 2, § 7, point 1:
Failure to pay or for late payment of membership fee
- a) The NA´s (National Association) have the obligation to pay punctually their membership fee and other fees called for by the IFF Regulations.
- b) A late payment of the membership or other fees called for by the IFF Regulations might entail a fine of CHF 100,- charged to the NA which, in addition, may be suspended until such payment has been made.
- c) In case of delay exceeding twelve (12) months, the sanction specified under article 7 par. 1 b) above, shall be imposed.
- d) Should the non-compliance continue for more than two (2) years, the NA shall be subject to suspension.
- e) The resumption of activity will be permitted as soon as the arrears are paid.
The Ukraine Floorball Federation and Floorball Federation of India have for a number of years neglected to pay off the membership fees and therefore in order to follow the IFF Statutes, the IFF CB has decided to suspend the Ukraine and India from all IFF activities starting from 1st of March 2010 until further notice. This means that no team from Ukraine or India can take part in any IFF Events or events organized by an IFF Member federation.
