Gómez Mardones replaces Pedro Rocha as president of the Footballers’ Mutual Association

MADRID, 29 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –

The president of the Vizcaya Football Federation (FVF), José Ignacio Gómez Mardones, has been unanimously elected president of the Footballers’ Mutual Association at the meeting held this Tuesday of the Board of Directors of said organization.

Gómez Mardones has extensive experience in insurance management, having been a member of the Board of Directors of the Mutual Society representing Biscayan mutual members since 2005. In addition, he is currently president of the FVF since 2004.

He began his career as a manager when he was elected vice president of the Sociedad Deportiva San Ignacio in 1976, a club that he presided from 1978 to 1982. He then became part of the Board of Directors of the FVF, being named vice president in 1994 and president in 2004.

Gómez Mardones replaces Pedro Rocha Junco, current president of the Managing Commission of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), who held such responsibility since May 2018, in the position of president of the Mutual Association. His resignation occurs at his own will.

At the same meeting of the Board of Directors of the Mutual Society, Manuel Torralba Charles was elected vice president, who is the representative of the Aragonese mutual members in said administrative body.

The Footballers’ Mutuality is an insurance entity specialized in health coverage for injuries to footballers, referees, technicians, assistants and other federated members, caused during the practice of that sport. Created in 1948, since then it has offered medical protection to its mutual members to guarantee their quick return to football activity.
