Chabur G. ALEI, The President of the South Sudan Football Association
Improvements in South Sudan sports, including football, have finally taken off. So I’d like to bring back what I learned during this visit and establish a supporting system for the South Sudan Football Association. In particular we’re keen on finding sponsors, who can help the association.
I think Japanese women’s football has been improving with incredible speed. I understand we need long-term and extensive efforts to put into practice what we learned in the lectures today. I am really grateful to the General Secretary as well as all the staff, who gave us lectures, for the wonderful hospitality. I hope both Nadeshiko Japan and SAMURAI BLUE will achieve their aims.
Paul PUK KUN NYAK, The Vice President of the South Sudan National Olympic Committee
I’m pleased that we came to Japan. I learned a lot about sports. I’ll put what I learned in Japan into practice for South Sudanese. I am really appreciative of JFA for their excellent hospitality.
