FAMACO I Course

About the program

Transitioning from the pitch to the boardroom is a vital step for retired athletes. The FAMACO I training is highly relevant for former footballers, designed to equip them with essential professional skills in football governance, club administration, and sports business management.

By mastering the administrative side of the modern game, our legends are empowered to take up leadership, coaching, and executive roles within football clubs and federations. This comprehensive curriculum dives deep into modern organizational structures, strategic financial planning, stakeholder engagement, and ethical leadership, ensuring participants understand both local and international sports regulatory frameworks.

Ultimately, this initiative ensures our legends remain actively, influentially, and profitably involved in the sport, directly supporting FFI’s mission to build a sustainable and dignified life for players beyond their active playing careers.
