The Amateur Football Committee’s proposal was unanimously approved, provisionally accepting an offer from AEK and Mr. Marios Iliopoulos for amateur football. Before formal acceptance of the proposal, a memorandum of cooperation will be drafted, following a meeting and financial and legal review. All conditions will also be examined by the Control, Governance, and Compliance Committee.

In alignment with FIFA-UEFA standards, Federation representatives will now attend the elections of EPO’s Member Associations. Responsibility for forming these EPO delegations in the EPS elections was delegated to the Amateur Football Committee. Additionally, the possibility of Federation representatives attending the regular General Assemblies of EPS was discussed.”
