Could you please ASSIST

I am seeking input and general advice on how a country such as Tanzania can go about developing capacity so as to be able to send players overseas and be accepted. What are the key building blocks in your view etc?

Also I would like your opinion, on other ways to improve Tanzanian football including if there are ways to work with the Tanzania Government in order to set up exchange programmes like the one Manchester United did to South Africa and Nigeria for friendly matches during the summer break.

The President of Tanzania, the Hon Jakaya Kikwete, is a sports fanatic, and am confident with good planning and arguments he can support such initiatives and see them through to implementation. I have engaged with his office on various initiatives around sports development.

Looking forward to hear from you if you have any advice.

I have been involved with sports in Tanzania as a Volleyball Coach for many years—and was a Tanzania Amateur Volleyball Association (TAVA) leader. I studied sports management at Leipzig University in Germany and understand the science behind sports. That led me to work as a football pundit, with the BBC ( Swahili service) in London. That experience and exposure took me to covering the 2010, World Cup in South Africa. This provided me with a great insight into international level football commentary and the opportunity to carry out extensive research into the game including its players, the stadiums, the rules and tactics.I have also been grateful to meet a wide range of people connected to football in the UK, Tanzania, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Ireland, France, Kenya etc, and visited almost all of the key football stadiums across United Kingdom, and Europe.

What do you think?
