Top Coaching for 300 Young People
Posted by Zimbabwe - 02/03/2007
The project responsible for the national Zimbabwe team is currently based in Hatcliffe, one of the most impoverished suburbs of Harare.
Its core aim is to teach young people by giving them access to high quality coaching in football, assertiveness and life skills. At the moment 300 young children from the age of 6 to 21 are catered for by YASD in four key programs: Soccer Training Programme, Soccer With Academics, Soccer Against AIDS and Drug Abuse and Recreational Therapy for Orphans and Vulnerable Children. For the players their Homeless World Cup appearance where they represent their country and YASD it is a great chance to build the profile of the programme and give other disadvantaged young people the opportunity to benefit from the work of YASD.

I just learnt about the Homeless World Cup from the guys my country and I really think you are doing a great job. However, I think a lot more needs to be done so that more people know what this tournament is all about, ie its goals.
