TECNO Mobile gives chance to African youngsters play as Premier League superstars

Leading mobile phone brand, TECNO Mobile, has today launched a new experiential initiative which will see 13 youngsters from across Africa spend a week enjoying the very best in coaching with Manchester City Football Club. 

The Blue Squad scheme, announced today at Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium, will see the youngsters train at City Football Academy for a week. 

Coaches from City Football Schools will be delivering fun and engaging lessons to the youngsters, using the Manchester City football know-how and methodology. 

The sessions will focus on specific areas of the City Play curriculum, using the examples of current City players, such as Kevin De Bruyne and David Silva, to challenge players to master the ball, play with style and dominate the game. 

The participants, aged 12-15, are from a wide range of African countries including Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria, Ghana and Egypt. As one of the top three mobile phone brands in Africa and a major player worldwide, TECNO Mobile is committed to the African market and community. 

Having launched in the region more than a decade ago, TECNO has grown rapidly through a deep understanding of the real needs of African consumers, providing several product developments to ensure users get the most out of their phones. 

Through this depth of knowledge in Africa, TECNO has made an ongoing commitment to provide wider community initiatives, with the Blue Squad the latest example of this. 

Plans are also in development to repeat the initiative annually and give more African youngsters the opportunity to experience playing at one of the world’s best football clubs.
