African Football and Sports volunteering and internship in Africa

Volunteer Africa is working to develop an African football youth academy by assisting with its talent development. Football is Tanzania’s national sport, and there is enormous potential among young, talented boys and girls. However, a lack of capacity makes it hard to produce professional football players. This program is a joint effort with our partner, Briessfull Stars Organisation, a group of retired top Tanzanian football professionals. 

We are looking for interns and volunteers to join and assist with coaching, ball, and physical training activities. Additionally, to advocate for young players, it is essential to emphasise the importance of good nutrition, hygiene, and other public health issues. Participants also assist in the village and school sports activities. Please help make a considerable difference in the lives of the young football players in Tanzania and encourage them to reach incredible heights.
