In April 2024, our Football Development team continued its work on supporting coach and player development in Rwanda. With the support of RDB, Ministry of Sport and FERWAFA, our coaching team continued to educate 50 grassroots coaches who have participated in the programme since the inception of the partnership. The 2 day refresher focused on how to embed a Rwandan Way of playing and coaching in their communities.
Our ambition is to grow our impact on football in Rwanda, an important step in this process was to provide access new groups of players and coaches. We onboarded a new cohort of 50 coaches from junior leagues and competitions in a second 2-day event.
There will be several events in 2024-25 season that continue our focus and ambition on developing football in Rwanda, with events across Women’s Football and a larger focus on providing unique player experiences in the coming season.
