THE CEBU FOOTBALL Association (CFA) is looking into two areas in Cebu for the Philippine Football Federation’s (PFF) goal project (GP) 5, the football village.

CFA president Richard Montayre, however, is withholding the location of these proposed areas since everything is still on the planning stage.

He said the football village is the brainchild of the CFA, which they proposed to PFF as its fifth GP.
