ONE of Ferwafa’s technical officials Aloys Kanamugire is attending a pilot course for new coaching licensing system organised by the Confederation of African Football in Cairo, Egypt.

The course, which has attracted 46 participants from 34 countries started over the weekend and winds up this Wednesday.

According to CAF Football Development Director Abdel Moneim, the objective is to enable CAF instructors go through the teaching materials and various steps of conducting the programme.

The Coaching Licensing System serves as a platform to evaluate coaches and to inject more professionalism into the art of coaching.

Moneim further added that to obtain the License, holders must pass an exam.

CAF has trained a panel of coaching instructors for the last four years to run this licensing programme.

After the course, national football associations will be required to organize courses based on the curriculum set up by CAF.
