Santo Domingo.- The Dominican Football Federation has launched a new training session for the FIFA Football for Schools (F4S) program at its High Performance Center, with activities taking place on April 23 and 24. The initiative is led by the federation’s technical and education departments.
A total of 45 teachers and monitors from across the country are participating in the training, with the goal of bringing the program’s methodology to schools and impacting hundreds of students through football as an educational tool.
The program will conclude with a Youth Football Festival on April 25, where participants will apply what they have learned in a practical, recreational setting. The event will also feature a special appearance by Hristo Stoichkov, who will share his experience to support youth football development.
