The Canada Soccer Association have released the findings into the independent investigation into the drone cheating scandal that rocked the soccer world and cast a shadow over the then-reigning gold-medalists at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Coach Bev Priestman and assistant coach Jasmine Mander will not return to Canada Soccer following a one year suspension that was handed down by FIFA. Technical analyst Joey Lombardi, who was also suspended, resigned from his position with Canada Soccer following the Olympics.
The report, conducted by Sonia Regenbogen of Mathews, Dinsdale & Clark, LLP, found that two of the coaches directed, approved, and condoned the actions taken by a third member of the women’s national team coaching staff to film practices at the Olympics using a drone.
