Kathmandu, April 4 (RSS): The 6th Season of the Football for Friendship (F4F) International Children’s Social Project has been launched in Nepal for the first time.
The goal of the programme is to involve the young generation throughout the world in promoting the most important human values among their peers – friendship, equality, peace and respect for different cultures and nationalities.
The Football for Friendship (F4F) Open Draw was held in Moscow recently. The program has expanded from 64 countries in 2017 to 211 countries and regions in 2018. A total of 32 International Teams of Friendship were formed during the Open Draw, as well as playing roles for each Young Player from each country (goalkeeper, defender, midfielder or forward) were determined. These 32 teams will compete at the Football for Friendship World Championship on 12 June 2018.
As per the Open Draw, the young ambassador from Nepal will play as a “forward” in the International Team of Friendship. The final events of the season will be held in Moscow, Russia from 8-15 June 2018.
The teams are organized using the “football for friendship” principle – athletes of different nationalities, different genders and different physical abilities will play in one team. National selections of participants who will become Young Ambassadors of peace, friendship and equality in their countries have started all over the world. The event is organised by Gazprom, the official partner of FIFA and the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Since 2013, PJSC Gazprom has been organizing the International Children’s social programme Football for Friendship. The key values promoted by the programme participants include friendship, equality, fairness, health, peace, devotion, victory, tradition and honour.
