Football debacle continues as PSL takes ZIFA to the Court of Arbitration for Sports

The standoff between ZIFA and the Premier Soccer League (PSL) escalated, with the PSL taking ZIFA to the Switzerland-based,  Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).  PSL clubs met in the  club and resolved to appoint advocates Lewis Uriri and Pat Kachidza to handle the application to CAS.

Excerpts from the PSL read:

…formally request arbitration in terms of the Cas Rules of Procedure, and apply to Cas for interim measures of protection which shall include but not limited to the following.

…an order barring Zifa from interfering with the day to day running of the PSL, and an order barring the purported suspension of and commencement of any proceedings whatsoever against the governors attending this meeting and/or their respective clubs and/or the PSL on the basis that: they have associated with an organisation, being the PSL, considered to have no legal standing in the Zifa Statutes or.

…they have not made decisions incidental to their membership of Zifa ‘independently’, or they have pursued the arbitration route with Cas, or they have declined to be bound by the unlawful and hence immediately null and void, resolution of the Zifa Congress of the 29 barring the forcible imposition of members on the PSL.

…barring the interference with the PSL’s resolution that it will not relegate any …member club at the end of the 2016 season pending the disposition of the substantive dispute by Cas, and generally all such interim relief as in counsel’s view, may be necessary or incidental to the effective implementation of the foregoing.
