MWEBE ALI

FUFA Football Development Director Ali Mwebe expressed his gratitude to FIFA for the programme. ‘We need specialised programmes and technical experts to elevate the quality of our technical human resource. This programme will help us to align with our Technical Master Plan and we expect a multiplier effect. Nyiima and Bamweyana will be equipped to train local coach educators, meeting the standards of the FUFA Technical Master Plan’ Currently, Uganda has 15 active coach educators.

FIFA has shifted its approach to coach education, focussing on developing homegrown coach educators with Member Associations. This aligns with FUFA’s Technical Master Plan which aims to create elite coach instructors who will later teach the local coaches. FIFA’s Head of coaching development Branimir Ujevic noted that; ‘FIFA’s goal is to enable every Member Association to develop home grown coach educators’

In 2024, FUFA selected Nyiima and Bamweyana to participate in the FIFA coach educator’s development pathway, a specialised programme aimed at developing coach educators. The programme consists of four stages; e-learning (self learning without a facilitator), online courses (with a facilitator), on site courses and individual onsite mentoring. Mokata’s mission is to mentor Nyiima and Bamweyana during the second module of the CAF C coaching Diploma.

South African FIFA Technical Expert Mokata Frans Mogashoa has arrived in Uganda for a five day mission to mentor two FUFA coach educators Jackson Nyiima and Bamweyana Douglas. The Ugandan duo is currently conducting a CAF C coaching course that started on Monday this week at Makerere University.
