In the week of Independence and Heroes day celebrations, September 17th -19th, Pro-Active Soccer School (PASS) in collaboration with the British High Commission and the St Kitts and Nevis Football Association has launched its Youth Football and Life Skills Project.
Captain Gerard Patterson of the RFA Argus, the Royal Navy ship, complimented the organizers on the project?s objective, to impart life skills to the at-risk youth footballers. He expressed great satisfaction towards the British High Commission?s role in funding this project under the Olympic Trust.
The opening event saw the official launch of PASS Academy, followed by a 5-a-side Youth Football Festival for players in the Under-14 and Under-16 categories. Subsequently, during the month of October 2012, PASS and the SKNFA hope to deliver the Life Skills Curriculum to the Youth Coaches of all its member clubs.
Anthony Johnson, President of the SKNFA, and President of SKNOC, Alphonso Bridgewater, spoke of the sporting heroes and athletes of St Kitts-Nevis who came through similar projects of this nature, to rise to regional and international recognition. This project will benefit many people who live in NEVIS REAL ESTATE.
