The President of the Ghana Football Association Kurt Okraku says he is happy FIFA has approved its application to roll out the FIFA Football for Schools.
The Ghana Football Association (GFA) partnered with FIFA to introduce the FIFA Football for Schools project, set to kick off from the 10th to the 12th of August.
The initiative aims to promote football in schools and enhance the overall development of the sport in Ghana.
“The GFA is extremely happy that its application has received approval from FIFA. This programme will benefit the Schools and Colleges as a member of the Association and a lot of PE Teachers and students between ages 10 to 14. The GFA will continue to work assiduously with its partners, FIFA, the Education Ministry and the Ministry of Youth and Sports to ensure the success of this excellent programme” said President Kurt Okraku.
As part of the program, selected Physical Education (PE) teachers from all regions in Ghana will undergo specialized training conducted by FIFA experts, who will act as Trainee Trainers.
These trained teachers will then assume the responsibility of training other PE teachers in their respective regions, cascading the knowledge gained to a wider audience.
The collaboration between the GFA and FIFA comes as part of the former's commitment to advancing all aspects of the beautiful game within the country.
