U-14 team's camp from February?
The Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) is working closely with the Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protishthan (BKSP) to ensure the under-14 football team is accommodated in the sports institute for a tenure of four years, claimed the federation's president Kazi Salahuddin yesterday.
The BFF boss was speaking at a reception organised for the under-14 team, which recently won plate championship title in Super Mokh Cup in Malaysia.
“The under-14 team will go to a residential camp in February and this residential camp will continue for 4 years. There is hunting going on apart from this team, from where the selected ones will be added to this team. A total of around 35 players will go to BKSP by the end of Feb. The number 30-35 will remain same while some of these players will drop out and new ones will get in,” said the BFF boss after the reception.
The BFF president claimed that they are in continuous liaison with the BKSP about accommodating not only the under-14 team, but also the U-16 and U-18 boys teams as well as U-14 and U-16 girls teams for the four year tenure.
“We will have five to six teams in different BKSP facilities at the same time. I have a director of strategy, a trainer and a goalkeeping coach. They will formulate the programmes for these teams,” said Salahuddin.
The players, officials and coaches of the under-14 team were each awarded Tk 20,000 each by Engineer Ghulam Mohammed Alamgir, chairman of the Max Group, the sponsors of the under-14 team.
State minister for youth and sports Biren Shikder MP, deputy minister Arif Khan Joy, BFF's senior vice-president Abdus Salam Murshedy, development committee chairman Badal Roy, other vice-presidents and senior officials of the federation, coaches, former and current footballers were present at the programme.
