I sat down with Wallace and Martin today to discuss CFDP's big project for the summer: A U-16 football league for clubs from around Kumba that will kick off at the beginning of July. I myself am working in Kumba this summer as the Director of CFDP's U-16 Football League. I
found that Wallace and Martin have already reached out to a variety of youth football clubs
around Kumba to inform them about the league. It is now up to teams to register
for the league with CFDP. Registration will last until May 31. Wallace says
that he expects at least 10 teams to participate in the league. My job for now
then is to determine the operational procedures for the league. Currently, I am
writing the official league manual. Our league will be unique because as a CFDP
league, it must be educational. Therefore, I am designing pre- and post-game
ceremonies that will be implemented at each match and will revolve around
educational topics, such as self-respect, teamwork, communication, HIV/AIDS
awareness, good sportsmanship, etc. Our vision for this league is grand. I hope
it will end up being that way.
