The Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA) and the Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) have signed a two-year partnership agreement aimed at strengthening football cooperation and supporting the development of the sport in both countries.
The agreement was signed in Rabat by SLFA President Babadi Kamara and FRMF President Fouzi Lekjaa.
Under the partnership, the two football governing bodies will collaborate in several key areas, including the training of technical and administrative personnel, referee development, youth football promotion, football workshops and the organisation of friendly matches.
A key component of the agreement is the planned development of football infrastructure in Sierra Leone, including the establishment of a technical training ground in a vulnerable community.
The partnership will also provide opportunities for Sierra Leonean technical and administrative personnel to participate in training and observation programmes hosted by the Moroccan Football Federation.
In addition, the agreement will facilitate access to specialised sports injury hospital facilities, strengthening cooperation in sports medicine and player welfare.
The SLFA and FRMF will further collaborate on the organisation of friendly matches involving their senior and youth national teams, covering both men’s and women’s football.
The agreement will remain in force for an initial period of two years and may be renewed upon mutual agreement between the two federations.
The partnership is expected to strengthen technical, administrative and sporting ties between Sierra Leone and Morocco while providing opportunities for Sierra Leone to benefit from Morocco’s experience in football development.
