A training session for over 40 football coaches from Kasaï-Central province in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been announced for September 21 to 30 in Kananga. The session aims to equip the coaches with the necessary skills and knowledge to obtain C and D licenses, a requirement for professional football coaches. The training is being organized with the support of Théodore Ntolo Mulumbayi, president of Association Sportive Malole de Kananga.
The training session is part of a broader initiative to professionalize football in the Kasaï-Central province. According to Van Mutungila, assistant to the organizer of the training, the session will focus on strategic and theoretical aspects of football coaching. A delegation from the Direction technique nationale de la Fédération congolaise de football association (Fecofa), led by Directeur technique national Médard Lusadisu, will oversee the training.
The training session is expected to have a significant impact on the development of football in the region. Théodore Ntolo Mulumbayi, a key figure in the development of football in Kasaï Central, has been instrumental in supporting the training initiative. His efforts have been praised by Van Mutungila, who described them as a remarkable act of philanthropy.
The training session is not an isolated initiative, but part of a larger strategy to improve football in the region. Two years ago, a similar session was organized for referees in the province. According to Van Mutungila, this demonstrates a commitment to raising standards across the board in provincial football.
The training session will provide participants with technical tools and knowledge to meet the requirements of C and D licenses. These certifications are essential for coaches to progress in their careers and contribute to the growth of football in the region. The initiative has been welcomed by stakeholders, who see it as a positive step towards professionalizing football in Kasaï Central.
Théodore Ntolo Mulumbayi's investment in football development in Kasaï Central has been recognized as a significant contribution to the sport. His efforts to improve infrastructure, including the rehabilitation of the stade des jeunes de Katoka, have been complemented by initiatives like the training session for coaches.
The training session is set to begin on September 21 and will run for 10 days in Kananga. With the support of Fecofa and Théodore Ntolo Mulumbayi, the initiative is expected to have a lasting impact on football development in the region.
