Sierra Leone becomes the 107th FIFA member association to join the FIFA "Football for Schools" (F4S) program.
F4S, with the objective of contributing to the development and empowerment of nearly 700 million children all around the globe, has reached a symbolic milestone in Sierra Leone, becoming the 107th FIFA Member Association to join the program.
With a total of 211 Member Associations in the world football governing body, F4S finds itself halfway through its ambitious mission to increase football accessibility for youth worldwide by integrating activities related to the sport into the educational system. It is in Africa, where Football for Schools is proportionally most prevalent (70% of FIFA's African Member Associations have been introduced to the program), that this milestone has been achieved.
