The Malawi National Council of Sports removed two of its member bodies for failing to follow established governance rules. The board chairperson, Jim Kalua, said the parachuting association and the shooting association were the ones deregistered. He made the statement during an interview conducted yesterday. In the same announcement, the council announced that twelve other associations received an extension of their compliance deadline. The new grace period runs until December 31, 2026, giving those groups time to meet the required standards. The council’s decision was reported on the Nation Online website. The actions reflect the council’s effort to enforce uniform governance across all sports bodies.
