There’s a dearth of structured football sessions for the children and youth in Sierra Leone. Majority of these children are poor homeless orphans. Football activities can be used to bring communities together contributing to the re-building of trust, decrease crime and violence for reconciliation and re-integration of communities. Football activities are specially held for Ebola survivors or those affected by the impacts of Ebola.
The project aims to provide infra-structures in order to offer football coaching which improves the children’s finesse in the game and team work, thereby making them competent enough to play at a competitive level. The project aims at reviewing their progress during coaching sessions and matches and keep a track of documentation via project reports. It involves asking parents or guardians of their communities how the project impacted the children’s lives, in terms of improved confidence and performance.
In order to meet the above objectives, Kamaray FAMILY donated 4 acres of land situate, lying and being at Maboikandoh Village, Newton, Ward C aforesaid to WCC and shall execute a deed of conveyance in favour of WCC when required to do so; WCC shall construct a primary school, health care centre for mothers and babies, football pitch, staff quarters and resource centres on the said land.Upon execution of this MoU which we have completed, WCC has also survey the said land and the Kamaray Family through Madam Rita Kamaray who is in the porcess of executing the conveyance in favour of WCC.The building projects aim to start in September 2019.
