Testimonials
"The collaboration with AFEB has enabled me to train as a director, president and coach of Basketball and Football and to familiarize myself with daily training sessions, adapted to the demands of the top level. On an extra-sporting, social and educational level, the collaboration with AFEB makes it easier for me to have a balanced daily routine. I'll also be able to take various training courses to perfect my team management, business and IT skills. On a human level, I'll be training others to live as a community in AFEB's premises and regions, and I'll have had the chance to create strong bonds with internationals."
- Bemba Sylla
"AFEB is an exceptional organisation that has fostered strong bonds between trainers, players, supporters, and parents. Everyone has worked together to create training schedules tailored to each individual's sport constraints. I cherish all the moments shared as an AFEB player - from training sessions, matches, and travel. This environment has helped me become more autonomous and responsible, shaping me into a better player, trainer, volunteer. "
