FIFA U-13 FOOTBALL FESTIVAL:
LOYOLA's Meldon D'Silva is NOT an Age cheat!!!
Review of Decision likely: Dr. Shaji Phrabakaran
24th December 2006
"I know when Meldon Was Born, is the AIFF telling a mother
that she did not know when her own child born??"'said an emotional Perp
etua D'silva reacting to news that her son Meldon a part of the Goa State
squad had been found overage and thus not allowed to play in the FIFA
U-13 Football Festival being held at Chennai.
The D'silva home and neighbourhood who have backed Meldon and his
neighbor the talented Brandon Fernandes both students of LOyola High School
are furious and disturbed... and appear to have taken he news as a personal
l condemnation. The news conveyed to the Goa squad by apparently by
the AIFF officials and filtering onto the state on Christmas eve was
met with both anger and disbelief in Meldon'shome village of Benaulim
and within football circles
throughout Goa.
GFA Secretary Savio Messias speaking to this writer minced no words "Im
shocked . Meldon is not in the wrong he has a valid passport as
asked by organisers.
. Ihave his necessary documentation
and will make an official protest with the AIFF and request the MRI be redone.
" said Messias and added "If he is wrong, I will be the first to implement a ban
but once established Meldo is innocent I will ensure thatjustice is
done " said Messias.
Speaking to this writer from Chennai Goa squad manager Paul Bast said"
We are naturally upset, especially young Meldon when informed by the organ
izers that a Bone Density Test of Meldons Elbow and chest showed him over-aged.
We are for a re-test in all likelihood Meldon should play the next match.
This writer has personally checked the following documentation for the
record.. and forwrded the same to the chennai.Meldon's date of birth
stated as 17th November 1994 is constant in every institution he is
registered.
The organizers calling this young boy a age cheat questions not only
the credibility of the GFA and his parents, but very credible persons
and establishments such as Dr Arcanjo Menezes Nursing Home Margao
,where he was born, Reverand Fr. Orlando Luis and Parish of The Holy
Trinity Church,Benaulim were he was baptised,the integrity of Loyola
High School, Margao where Meldon is a student of Class seven,
Salgaocar Sports Club in the u-14 team , The Ministry of External
Affairs; Govt. Of India who have issued the
boy a valid passport and Goa Police Force who cleared the same. The
organisers would have to establish that
ALL the above are in the wrong and thus age –cheats if GOA is to
accept the Meldon D'silva is not 12 years old.
There is absolutely no question as of now, in Goa that Meldon is over
age as all the above have been checked and his date of birth stands at
17th NOVEMBER 1994 as registered by the GFA and an appeal has been
made to
Vision India Director Shaji Phrabakaran.That he is looking into the
matter is positely hope that a young football
dream will not be killed.

I am interested in the soccer happenings at Loyola High school,
Margao, I played for Loyola, represented the school in the Subrota Cup
and the All-Goa School tournament, ( I may have the names of the
tournaments wrong. This was long time ago, in the mid and late '70's).
How is the school doing lately?
