The Cabinet noted that the ABFA is the duly recognized governing body for football in Antigua and Barbuda, and that the Technical Center represents a major investment in sports development.

The facility comprises two FIFA-certified artificial turf playing fields, administrative headquarters, modern player changing rooms, laundry facilities, and public amenities.

It also serves as the national hub for football training, development, and competitions, including school-level tournaments in partnership with the Ministry of Sports.

  The ABFA and the Ministry of Sports currently have a Memorandum of Understanding to partner on the management of schools football.

Cabinet further acknowledged that the Technical Center is the first facility of its kind in Antigua and Barbuda, and its establishment represents a multi-million-dollar investment in the nation’s sporting infrastructure.

In line with existing Government policy, other national sporting venues currently benefit from utility concessions, and Cabinet recognized the importance of extending parity of treatment to the ABFA.

The Cabinet approved the request by the Antigua and Barbuda Football Association and granted a waiver of all utility charges (electricity and water) for the ABFA Technical Center on a continuing basis.

This approval is given in recognition of the critical role that the facility plays in advancing youth and community development, promoting sports excellence, and strengthening Antigua and Barbuda’s standing in regional and international football.

The Cabinet commends the ABFA for its investment and partnership in the development of national sports and reaffirms its commitment to supporting initiatives that advance the country’s social and sporting infrastructure.
