• CONMEBOL , December, 9, 2010 - The president of the Argentine Football Association, Julio H. Grondona said that the renovation work and implementation of the venues in the 8 host cities are ongoing in a positive maner, and stated that there is certainty of success in the competition, considering the remarkable support of national and provincial authorities to the Copa America.
  
  He also confirmed that on the occasion of the traditional competition there will be a FIFA-CONMEBOL medical conference to be held on June 30 at the Hilton Buenos Aires Hotel. A coaches’ conference was also confirmed. The same is scheduled for June 28 and 29.
  
  In another order, the president of the Football Federation of Chile, Harold Mayne-Nicholls, was emphatic in stressing that henceforth, CONMEBOL should consider further the invitations to other countries to participate in the Copa America. Being that the associations from Mexico and Japan would come to the big event with national teams that are not up to their full potential, which certainly does not correlate with the attitude of the South American Associations, which announced their top figures for the Cup. He also stressed that many countries want to participate in the Copa America as guests.
