“The Zimbabwe Football Association informs all members of the ZIFA assembly that the Annual General Meeting set for 25 April has been postponed to the 27th of June 2015.

“The postponement has been caused by the financial constraints currently obtaining as well as the pressing national teams’ commitments,” Mashingaidze said.

Mashingaidze listed a several obligations currently exhausting the little financial resources at ZIFA’s disposal.

Chief among the crippling financial issues are debts to former national team coaches Jose Georgini and Tom Saintfet.

Women and men’s senior national teams have a condensed fixture which will also require huge financial influxes which are currently not forthcoming at the association.

Among the lined up assignments are the COSAFA Cup, CHAN qualifiers, AFCON qualifiers, Under 23 Championship qualifiers and Africa Games participation.
