Please accept this letter as a formal notice of my resignation from my position as president of the Secondary Schools Football League.

It was a pleasure working with you and members of the executive over the last three years. I thank all the stakeholders; principals, coaches, administrators and sponsors for their unwavering support over the years.


I wish the League all success in the 2020 season and beyond. If needed I would be available to help in any way, so feel free to contact me at any time.

Yours sincerely,

William Wallace

  1. I suppose the media do not count as a “stakeholder” so the heartfelt “thank you” for them will come in a separate communication. It better come soon because, as the Editor is careful to point out here, Mr Wallace wears more than one football hat.
