BOARD APPROVES FEDERATION EVALUATIONS

The Jordan Olympic Committee (JOC) board, under the Presidency of HRH Prince Feisal Al Hussein, has approved the results of the national sporting federations evaluation for the first half of 2015.

Each of Jordan’s sporting federations are evaluated to ensure they are meeting strategies developed at the start of the year, and five federations recorded marks in excess of 85%.

Nine federations scored between 75-84.99%, six federations evaluated from 65-74.99 while six federations scored less than 65%.

Also, during the meeting this week, the board reviewed a financial report from the federations with those facing discrepancies being told to resolve within three weeks or face the withdrawal of financial support.

Meanwhile, the Jordan Badminton Federation had their elections approved with Ahmad Abu Sheikhah to represent the distinguished category in the federation.
