The above picture is neither a photo album nor a soccer picture assignment by a kindergaten kid but its the homepage of Football Association of Maldives website. The first place for foreign news agencies enter to gather information regarding Maldives Soccer programs.

The site address is included in FIFA's offical website and there is no doubt that a numerous number of visitors around the world had already visited this site and surely they will close the window or type another URL in the address bar of their browser with a joking smile on their face or with disapointement if he or she is a professional reporter.

When we dive into eight or ten years back soccer in Maldives was low in level of development. Today several activities related to soccer organize and do every year. Therefore there is no acceptable excuse for the big red "underconstruction" board in the site.

Almost every Government office has their own website, which is well developed both in designing and maintenance. So what's the actual reason of FAM in delaying to publish a world class website. There is no lack of educated and talented web designers in Maldives. This can be prove best by the huge support by teenagers for Dhiraagu's annual web designing competition and the quality of websites submitted by these young designers.

It is a request and a concern of soccer crazy maldivians to improve the standard of the website of the gateway of Maldives Soccer.
