Abstract: Abstract At the October 2013 Congress of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) in Mauritius, FIFA President Sepp Blatter declared that the governance reform process that he had initiated two years earlier had come to a close: ‘We have been through a difficult time. It has been a test for football and those who lead it. As your captain, I can say we have weathered the storm’ (Robinson, 2013). Blatter used the same nautical metaphor that he had upon launching the reform effort in May 2011: ‘I am the captain, we will weather the storm together’ (Pielke, 2013a).
