The Kalusha Bwalya Foundation Trust ( KBFT) says it is determined to improve soccer in the country through training.
KBFT President Kalusha Bwalya said this is because education is not a privilege but a right that has to be respected.
He was speaking at the end of five day training workshop of Zambia Police football coaches at Lilayi Police College today.
The workshop was done in cooperation with the Royal Netherlands Football Association (KNDB).
Bwalya said his organisation together with the Football Association of Zambia was determined to continue providing training to Zambian coaches and their players.
The course’s objective was aimed at developing and equipping coaches with training skills in soccer. 29 Zambia Police coaches participated
Kalusha reminded participants to utilise the skills attained saying it was a journey they have chosen to improve soccer standards in their clubs.
” It is a journey you have chosen so be determined. A number of people would expect positive results but be determined to improve soccer in the long run, ” he said.
Speaking earlier, Zambia Police Investigator General Ephraim Mateyo thanked the Trust for choosing to train ZP coaches.
In a speech read on his behalf by Lilayi Officer In Command Dr Solomon Jere, Mr Mateyo said while the general public had the wrong notion about the Zambia Police, it was heartening to not that the Trust had opted to train various Police coaches.
The I.G urged the coaches to utilise the skills attained to improve soccer in the Service saying one of ZP’s major teams, Nkwazi Football Club, should go back to the KCM/FAZ premier league next season.
And the Schools Commanding Officer Eugene Sibote thanked the , KBFT for choosing to hold the training at his institute.
Commander Sibote said his institute expects nothing but positive results among various ZP football clubs in the country.

Bravo to Kalu for this welcome development, I wish more of us could come up and engage with government to set up such structures in each province. The success in football and other sports will depend on these kinds of investments…
Kalu, is doing a great job giving the chances to the Zambian kids,this is a wonderfull opportunity that might have not come acrose of them kids. It is important, for a great soccer icon like Kalu, to give back and trace hope to every kid whose willing to work extra hard. Regardless of what in life you have to start somewhere, and this is where you would want to start at(KBFT) to become someone. Kids out there chase your dreams, they do not come to you until you truly want them. God bless your and ps.
Great Kalu is doing a great job by feeding more information to the coaches in Zambia.I think he should be travelling around the country to talk to coaches about coaching techniques. We want to see him in Southern Province too. It`s like Southern power has been overlooked.There is a lot of boys with skills. Lets bring back soccer in Zambia so that we can sing Chipolopolo again. Thanks.
