African Football Youth Academy Development Internship
Summary
Green Works Africa is developing youth football, assisting in the talent development of a Football Academy jointly with its partners.
Details
Football is the national sport in Tanzania. There is an enormous potential for young, talented girls and boys. However, it is hard to produce professional football players due to their low capacities.
This program is a joint effort with our partners, Briessfull Stars Organization of retired top Tanzanian football professionals and 7Elity Academy from Utah, USA, having branches in the UK and South Africa and 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.
We use our social media pages for advocacy work, and our Facebook pages have more than 50K followers.
Academic-level team leaders and x Tanzanian football stars are supervising your internship daily. In addition, we monitor your work with a weekly plan and report system to ensure you proceed well in your study program.
The internship outcome is learning to use and get experience to implement your education in developing country conditions with limited capacity. Also, to better understand the opportunities in a fast-growing economy.
Work hours are 6-8 hours per day, Monday through Friday. However, due to the nature of the work, coaching sessions also occur in the evening and on weekends, but then you can have free days during the week.
The start and end dates are flexible and accommodate other travel arrangements in Tanzania.
The international flights, student permits, accommodation, and meals are personal costs.
You and your visiting friends can enjoy low-cost, sustainable tours and safaris.
