In this interview with The Daily Star, Bangladesh Football Federation president Tabith Awal spoke about both women's and men's teams and the controversies surrounding football.

The public outcry over the departure of Italy-based Bangladeshi footballer Fahamedul Islam from the national team carried over to the second day with the sports adviser Asif Mahmud and Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) president Tabith Awal having to weigh in on the issue today.

“After six years, the BFF has come out of the restricted financing from FIFA, which just informed us of the development today,” BFF president Tabith Awal told The Daily Star.

Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) yesterday signed contracts with 36 players of the national women’s football teams, confirmed a source within the BFF.

Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) president Tabith Awal is holding an optimistic view regarding the impasse over women's football team’s training camp, saying that they “will most definitely come to an amicable solution soon.”

There apparently has not been any headway in the impasse in women's football despite a wholehearted effort from the president of Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) to break the ice between the 18 senior players and the head coach of the women's national team.

Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) president Tabith Awal will make a call on the report prepared by a seven-member special committee regarding the ongoing impasse over women’s football team’s camp, even though it is uncertain whether the president will declare the findings of the report today or will take more time to more on the delicate issue before making it public.

A seven-member special committee of the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) yesterday began the process of interviewing the 18 rebel footballers who are boycotting the training camp under national women’s team coach Peter Butler, demanding his resignation.

The newly elected president of the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF), Tabith Awal, brings a wealth of experience to the role at 45, having served as BFF's vice-president twice before.

The first meeting of the newly-formed executive committee of Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) named chairmen of the important departments, 14 days after the elections took place.

The newly elected members of Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) are likely to get a clear picture about the finances of the game's local governing body as the first executive committee meeting today is set to focus mostly on financial matters.

When legendary footballer Kazi Salahuddin was elected as the president of the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) some 16 year ago in 2008, hopes were that the former footballer-turn-organiser would revive the country’s declining football and elevate it to a new height. But unlike his playing days, Salahuddin failed to deliver by and large as an administrator.

Former footballer-turned-organiser Tabith expectedly won the elections with a landslide victory over unheralded organiser AFM Mizanur Rahman Chowdhury by 123-5 votes, as 128 voters out of 133 delegates cast their votes to elect a new committee for the next four years, from 2024 to 2028.
