It's been months in the works amd now the new and improved FIFA CONCACAF has been launched.
The guys have been working hard to provide you with a one-stop shop experience for all your CONCACAF news and FIFA gaming needs. They've expanded their news by adding zone-specific pages. So now you can take a trip over to their North America, Central America, and Caribbean pages.
They've also added country association pages for more info on the countries of the Confederation, however these are still under construction. If you'd like to help get your country's page built, please contact Greg Baker or any of the FIFA CONCACAF Co-Webmasters.
This is a site in transition, so there may yet be some areas which are under construction. Do you have any suggestions? comments? great ideas? Head on over to their Forums and let them hear what you have to say!
