Condition: The League did not file the required Single Audit reporting package with the FAC within the required timeframe. The reporting package for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, was submitted after the nine month deadline of June 30, 2025. Cause: The audit was not completed in a timely manner due to delays in the League providing necessary documentation and support to the auditors. This resulted in a late submission of the Single Audit reporting package to the FAC. Effect: Failure to file the Single Audit timely may result in noncompliance with federal requirements and could affect the entity's eligibility to receive future federal funding. Questioned Costs: None noted. Recommendation: We recommend the League implement procedures to ensure timely completion of the audit process, including timely submission of requested documentation to meet reporting deadline.
