Education fosters intellectual development, while sports cultivate character; together, they produce confident, disciplined, and empowered youth prepared to contribute to a better future.

This is the goal we aimSport For Empowerment Foundation Sierra Leone Foundation Sierra Leone and our other initiatives across the country.

Currently, ninety-nine per cent of football players do not advance to professional levels. A comprehensive review of over 724,000 youth football players revealed that nearly one in four participants ceases organised football each year. Annually, thousands of players discontinue training, lose faith, or view football as less valuable than other pursuits. However, in Sierra Leone, thousands of children regard football as a path out of poverty.

At the Sport For Empowerment Foundation and FISA Foundation, we are committed to changing this narrative by emphasising education. We incorporate educational messages into our community outreach during our pitch-side talk shows.

We are developing the next generation of athletes who recognise the importance of giving back to their communities, as we believe this is the most sustainable form of development.

What you observe is not merely a football match, but a developmental phase for young athletes aspiring to attain excellence both on and off the field.

The survey assigns Sierra Leone an overall digital literacy score of merely 26 out of 100, characterising digital literacy among adults as “extremely low.” Only 25% of adults demonstrated the ability to independently save or delete contacts, 21.5% were capable of sending text messages, 24.1% utilised the internet, and merely 15.2% had conducted an online search within the preceding three months.

According to sources at www.uncdf.org, in the publication titled "National Digital and Financial Literacy Baseline Survey - Sierra Leone 08 October 2025," significant concerns have been raised. Notably, some educational institutions, including schools and universities, offer computer science literacy courses in which students have never been exposed to a computer during lectures or class sessions.

In response to these challenges, Sport For Empowerment Foundation Sierra Leone, through Friends In Sport Academy Malama Lumley and its partners, Leaders Hub Foundation at Vincent Drive Sierra Leone, is leading efforts to enhance digital literacy among students, teachers, and community leaders. These initiatives are not merely promotional or promotional photographs; they provide tangible, real-life digital education experiences for individuals who are struggling to keep pace with the digital advancements of the world.

The programs provided are entirely free of charge for students from third grade through senior secondary school, as well as at the community level.

At our foundation, we are proud of the young individuals who initiated this project and recognise the importance of partnering with them to address the increasing challenges posed by the digital economy.

Having a frank conversation with our community children at Vincent Drive Malama, where we conduct our daily sports training. The discussion focused on making plans, setting goals, and, most importantly, maintaining discipline.

At Sport Sport For Empowerment Foundation Sierra Leoneream gives us direction, but a plan gives us the pathway. At SFEF, we believe success is not built by chance—it is built through clear goals, disciplined action, teamwork, and the courage to keep moving forward. When we have a plan, every small step becomes part of a larger journey towards empowering young people through education and sport.”

While in Sierra Leone to evaluate our work across the country, I made my first stop with our country director at our hockey team’s training in Lumley Malama Vincent Driv to see what they are up to and give them encouraging words of advice so that they can focus on their education and sport development moving forward.

Through our partnership with Leaders Hub Foundation, we have successfully engaged children from diverse communities in our sports program, enabling them to acquire valuable computer skills during the holiday period.

Some of these children are founding members of our Friends In Sport Academy initiative, which operates an educational institution ranging from nursery to senior secondary school.

At Sport For Empowerment Foundation Sierra Leone, our work extends beyond athletic activities, as we believe that life continues beyond sport. Through this approach, we have initiated additional programs that now operate independently, with our organisation providing oversight to ensure their sustainability within society.

A glimpse of our community boys competing against Mohamed_Kallon3 Kallon FC’s Youth Football Team at their training complex in Angola Town, Freetown, Sierra Leone.

This was the first significant match for our players at Sport For Empowerment Foundation Sierra Leone and Friends In Sport Academy Lumley Malama, marking an important milestone in their developmental journey.

Thanks to the management of FC Kallon for this wonderful opportunity as we look forward to bringing our boys from other parts of the country to gain the same experience accorded to the Freetown guys.

MOHAMED KALLON JOINS HANDS WITH SFEF & FRIENDS IN SPORT ACADEMY TO INSPIRE YOUNG PEOPLE

Sport For Empowerment Foundation Sierra Leone (SFEF) / Friends In Sport Academy is delighted to share a special and inspiring moment as Sierra Leone football legend Mohamed Kallon joins hands with us in our mission to change the lives of young people through education and sport.

For the first time, members of our community football team had the incredible opportunity to meet and interact in person with one of Sierra Leone’s most experienced and celebrated footballers — a player who has represented Sierra Leone with distinction and graced football at the highest levels around the world.

For our young players, this was more than a game.

It was a moment of inspiration, belief and possibility. Meeting Mohamed Kallon showed them that the journey from a community football field to the international stage is possible through hard work, discipline, education, determination and commitment.

At SFEF and Friends In Sport Academy, we believe football is not only about winning matches. It is a powerful platform for education, character development, mentorship and creating pathways for young people to achieve their dreams.

Having Mohamed_Kallon3 share this moment with our young players strengthens that message and gives them something powerful to believe in:

“Every star has a starting point. Believe in the journey, work for the dream, and never stop learning.”

Together, we will continue creating opportunities and inspiring the next generation of Sierra Leonean young people through Education & Sport. 🇸🇱⚽📚
