Malta FA mourns passing of Paul Falzon

The Malta Football Association is mourning the death of Paul Falzon who passed away today, aged 73. Falzon dedicated most of his life to sports, both as an athlete and administrator. A prominent waterpolo goalkeeper in his prime, Falzon is synonymous with St Andrews FC. For over two decades, Falzon served as president of St Andrews, also representing the club in the Council of the Malta Football Association. He also formed part of the Association’s Executive Committee, a post he occupied until the end of last season when health issues forced him to take a step back. “We are all deeply saddened by the news that our friend and colleague Paul Falzon has passed away,” Bjorn Vassallo, the President of the Malta Football Association, said. “Paul’s contribution to football is mirrored in the progress made by his club, St Andrews throughout the years, both on and off the field, while at national level, he was a member of the Malta FA Council and Executive Committee. “Above all, Paul was a great character, loved by all those who knew him. He will be badly missed.” The Malta FA extends its profound condolences to the family and relatives of Paul Falzon at this sad time.
