JFF upholds decision to bar Wadadah from JPL playoff

The Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) has stood by its decision to promote Montego Bay United for next season of the Jamaica Premier League (JPL) in a release sent to Wadadah on Wednesday afternoon.

Following its meeting on Tuesday with the St James-based club, the JFF said: "Having reviewed correspondences between the JFF and Wadadah, it was confirmed that Wadadah failed to register their players and officials on the JFF connect platform by the stated deadline of 5:00 pm on October 1, 2021."

Based on this ruling, Montego Bay United is set to replace UWI FC in the 2021-2022 season which organizers plan to start later this year.
