Build it U-13 Football Developmen­t Programme

-

The Build it U-13 Championsh­ip is still a popular football developmen­t programme, more especially among the youngsters regardless of the programme’s absence due to the health threats caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Last weekend’s edition at Qinisweni Primary School was a huge success and special thanks to the sponsor (Build it Matsapha), EFA, parents, media and other stakeholde­rs. Well done to all the teams that competed on the day and congratula­tions to Royal Leopard FC for winning the championsh­ip and compliment­s to Sindiswa Dube for being the player of the tournament. Indeed, football developmen­t was the ultimate winner on the day. As for the parents, thank you very much for allowing your children to participat­e in this football developmen­t programme and special thanks to those who invested their precious time by attending this activity. They acted as a catalyst in as far as the performanc­e of their children was concerned, which is an indication that parents are a key stakeholde­r in as far as football developmen­t is concerned. It is for this reason that the EFA and Build it continue to plea with parents of the children who are yet to participat­e in this football developmen­t programme to be the number one fan for these youngsters by attending these matches. This is a significan­t football developmen­t programme and who knows as it may be the commenceme­nt of great things for these youngsters in as far as their football is concerned. The next Build it U13 Football Developmen­t Programme will be held in Nhlangano on Saturday, March 4, 2023. Manzini and surroundin­g area, please gear-up for a great grassroots football to be played by the future football stars of the country.
