ZIFA Axes Rogue ZIFASOL Leagues On The Spot

Zimbabwe Football Association stopped all ZIFASOL activities across the country. The ruling body rejected ZIFASOL's membership application but the group kept running football programs anyway. ZIFA officials said ZIFASOL organized area zone competitions without proper permission. The unauthorized group also conducted training courses that lacked official approval. Association leaders called these actions parallel administration that breaks football rules.

ZIFA demanded all clubs leave ZIFASOL and join official area zone structures immediately. The association warned that unauthorized training programs put player safety at risk. Football bosses said only ZIFA and recognized members can oversee local competitions. Clubs must realign with approved structures or face serious consequences for violations. The governing body stressed its commitment to structured football development throughout Zimbabwe.

Amateur football leagues face major disruption after the suspension announcement. Dozens of fixtures and training programs may stop because of the crackdown. Club officials scramble to meet ZIFA requirements and avoid further penalties. Lower division teams worry about completing their seasons under new regulations. The suspension affects grassroots football development across multiple regions.
