“The show is an initiative for advancing youth soccer, especially at the grassroots level through a designed curriculum that has the potential to develop fundamental technical skills and tactical awareness in young players, who are committed to competing at the highest levels,” a statement read in part.
Chairman of DDFS, Mr Abu Salami, at the launch and announcement of the programme on Tuesday, April 18, disclosed that the talent show would run for a total of 30 weeks with one episode airing on a weekly basis.
“First, we will organise a screening of those who will register. Once they are screened, we will organise a series of trials. From that exercise, the best among them will be selected for camping for the final show,” he said.
