In its bid to promote and develop future football players in the commonwealth, NMIFA has handed down new football gear and equipment to selected schools under the Public School System.
The donation package includes the following football equipment that can be used by schools in their physical education program: four footballs of two sizes; one pair of football gloves; one hand football pump with needle; one ball bag; 14 pairs of shin guards; and eight pieces if flat disc.
The following are the schools that have received their package: Dandan Elementary School, Garapan Elementary School, Gregorio T. Camacho Elementary School, Kagman Elementary School, Koblerville Elementary School, Oleai Elementary School, San Antonio Elementary School, San Vicente Elementary School, Tanapag Elementary School, William S. Reyes Elementary School, Rota Elementary School, and Tinian Elementary School.
The donation was made possible by First Hawaiian Bank Foundation, Joeten Charitable Foundation, Hong Kong Football Association, and a few other individuals and companies.
“Our first step was to purchase and donate a pair of goal posts to all the CNMI public schools,” NMIFA said, adding, “”Within one month, we provided these goal posts to all the public elementary, middle and senior high schools on Saipan…”
NMIFA emphasized that it will soon provide football training through its CNMI Interscholastic Football program.
