It is holidays. We need to keep these kids off the streets and engage them in what they are passionate for (Football). Above all, most of our club's main players come from the youth department. We have to continue discovering and developing talents. This year, our internal tournament, which started yesterday, shall see us put U10 and U12 tournaments. Each category would have 4 teams. The kids chose the names of their teams based on what they follow most ( Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Chelsea FC, Manchesta City, FC Barcelona).

In all , we have 120 kids, all from the Academy, who are going to take part in the touraments. They will play home and away games on the same pitch ( Our training ground in St. Francis college and STS).

Yesterday in the U10 category's opening match, Manchester United drew with Barcelona 0 - 0 with Moyen Praise winning the man of the match award. The games continue on Tuesday.

This tournament is run in collaboration with NFI's German partner, African Impulse e.V.
