So many people think Football is just for fun. I beg to differ in that regard. I started running soccer at my Township in trying to engage young people with something they love and football is very simple to run, you need just a ball and then you can unite nations through that 1 ball. Langa Township is a township where many young people get destructed very easily by unhealthy things such as drugs and gangsterism.
Having a Soccer Club at Langa Township has been a way of saying NO to drugs and NO to gangsterism by bringing something that will show the young children a purpose to life.
The are so many Leadership roles in Football, for example the team Captain that role is about growing a good leader that can work with people in and off the field. Vice Captainancy is another leadership role in football.
I believe that as a Manager or Coach you need to emphasise a lot in those small roles and show your players the bigger picture. Peace Lovers FC is a one of the teams that links Football and Leadership and put a lot of emphasis in the FIFA Fair play which teachers respect and unselfishness.
