Recruiting Organization: Art in Tanzania

Summary

Art in Tanzania is developing youth football, assisting talent development of a Football Academy jointly with its partners.

Details

Football is the national sport in Tanzania. There is enormous potential for young talented girls and boys. However, it is hard to produce professional football players due to their low capacities.

Art in Tanzania Football Development program is a joint effort with our partners, the Briessfull Stars Organisation, of retired top Tanzanian football professionals.

Part of the financing comes from 7Elity Academy from Utah, USA, having branches in the UK and South Africa connected to top world football clubs.

We look for interns and volunteers to join and assist in coaching, ball, and physical training activities. Also, advocate for young players about good nutrition, hygiene, and other public health issues.

Participants can also assist in the village and school sports activities.
