GFA Assists Grassroots Programmes
23rd
February, 2017-St. George’s-
As the Grenada Football Association focuses its energy on youth development, a
number of grassroots programmes are being given assistance to enhance their
programme delivery.Already, two coaches running grassroots programmes have
received equipment including balls, pumps and ball bags.
One of the programmes receiving assistance today was OK (Only Kids) Soccer
Academy run by Gerard ‘Bubbles’ Alexander in Mt. Moritz. Presently, he says he
has close to thirty children whom he works with on a weekly basis.
Speaking of the assistance, Alexander said, “This gesture is timely and a blessing
considering the cost of equipment presently.”
The other coach receiving assistance today was Shaka Logie. He heads the Rising
Star Football Academy in Chantimelle which is in its first year. Thus far, he has
close to thirty children registered and he says interest is keen. He said, “We need
equipment if we want to properly develop the talent of our young people. We thank
the GFA for this gesture.”
The GFA is also hoping to assist a number of schools and football clubs as part of
its National Youth League programme for 2017.
