FORMER Zimbabwe youth international and founder of Jadel Football Academy Walter Musanhu continued with his support for football development, donating state-of-the-art football equipment and football kit to Harare High School on Tuesday.
A former student of Harare High, Musanhu believes there is the need to nurture talent and expose kids at a tender age to proper training methods.
Speaking after donating sports equipment and football kit, Musanhu, who led a delegation of former players and legends, felt it was his obligation together with other players to play a part in developing talent in their former schools.
“It is our obligation as former players to give back to schools that nurtured us to be where we are today and the career path that we took,” he said.
“We have made a donation of football equipment and kit to Harare High School as part of us giving back to the community and being involved in the development of the next football stars,” said Musanhu.
Musanhu stated that, through Jadel Football Academy, he has partnered with Harare High School to offer kids scholarships as they seek to give opportunities to the upcoming talent while also using football as a vehicle to fight drug and substance abuse.
“As Jadel Football Academy we have since partnered with Harare High School where we are offering scholarships to kids to pursue education while they also pursue their sports talent.
“Through this program we are fighting the scourge of drug and substance abuse.
“Through the academy, we teach the kids about the dangers of drug and substance abuse which they go and share with their peers in school.
“We have seen an increase in the number of kids that have joined the Academy at Harare High,” he said.
Musanhu also revealed that Jadel Football Academy was nearing the completion of its club house and training ground which will accord upcoming players to get the required hours of football before turning professional
