FIFA to launch nationwide school football education in 2025
ACCORDING
to
the Myanmar Football Federation (MFF), basic football education will be introduced
in basic education schools across Myanmar starting from the 2025 academic year
as part of FIFA’s initiative.
These basic football training sessions
will be launched in Myanmar under FIFA’s “Football For Schools” programme in
2025. The initiative is set to expand annually, reaching an increasing number
of basic education schools across the country.
U Zaw Min Htaik, Director of Media and
Communications at the Myanmar Football Federation, stated, “This programme
will be implemented through a collaboration between FIFA, the Myanmar Football
Federation, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Sports and Youth
Affairs. Football training applications containing fundamental coaching
techniques will be distributed to schools, and teachers will incorporate them
into physical education classes.”
As part of the “Football For Schools”
project, FIFA will provide over 40,000 Adidas footballs to the Myanmar
Football Federation. These footballs will be distributed to basic education
schools participating in the programme. — ASH/ KNN
