I find it completely appalling that the IQA knew of the issues that Team Uganda would face but continued to ask for money without disclosing that information publicly to those they were asking for it from. That dishonesty is not acceptable, even if they did it with best intent. You can't take that much money under false pretenses. And to then decide to use the money that people have donated for one goal, for another purpose is also not okay. It's not the IQA's decision to make. Not at €10,000. They should at least ask the backers for permission or give them the option of refund. After all, what is the point of a jersey for a team that never played? That donation may have gone to a team's fundraiser that did have to travel to attend. <br />Which brings me to Peru. How could the IQA justify giving AT LEAST half of this money to Uganda to not play while they decided to not share the fund with Peru when they recommitted to the tournament. This entire process has been poorly run and unprofessional, and would not be acceptable by a larger sporting body, how are we standing by while the IQA abuses people's trust and takes their money.
