SFF honours education partner with commemorative gift

 As part of its appreciation for valued partners and in celebration of Seychelles’ 50 years of independence, the Seychelles Football Federation has launched a special initiative to distribute commemorative footballs to organisations that have contributed to the growth and development of football in the country.

The Ministry of Education and Human Resource Development was the latest recipient of special footballs, receiving 54 commemorative balls during a presentation ceremony held yesterday at the ministry’s headquarters in Mont Fleuri.

The footballs will be distributed to schools across the country, providing young students with additional opportunities to take part in football activities and develop their sporting abilities.

The presentation was led by Seychelles Football Federation (SFF) vice-president Dolor Ernesta, who officially handed over the footballs to Minister for Education and Human Resource Development, David Pierre.
