The 23-seater minibus donated by UEFA

The Seychelles Football federation has received a brand new 23-seater mini-bus which will go towards supporting the development of grassroots and youth football in the country.

The donation, worth more than R700,000 (including freight charges) is from the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) to the Seychelles Football Federation (SFF) and the mini-bus will be used by the technical department.

Only last month, the SFF’s technical office block financed by the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (Fifa) was officially opened.

SFF secretary general and chief executive George Bibi has said this is in line with the SFF’s vision and plan to focus on youth development, in particular grassroots, women football and school competitions.

Mr Bibi told Sports NATION that “Seychelles’ football has to show a different face in the next five to 10 years”.
