The Don Bosco Mimboman social sports school, developed by the Real Madrid Foundation in Yaoundé (Cameroon), continues to establish itself as a benchmark in using sports as a tool for education and social integration. One of the most significant milestones of the season has been the organization of the first football and basketball training sessions for the school’s coaches.

Over three days, four coaches, along with invited professionals from different areas of Yaoundé, participated in training focused on the educational methodology of the Real Madrid Foundation. The sessions combined theoretical and practical work to delve into the design of educational activities through sports, with a particular emphasis on integrating values into all training tasks. Additionally, specific work was carried out on basketball methodology in preparation for the launch of a new group dedicated to this discipline.

Promotion of values
Through weekly football training sessions organized by age groups, the school promotes values such as respect and teamwork. The addition of basketball aligns with a strategy aimed at encouraging greater participation of girls and adolescents in the project, thereby expanding access to educational sports opportunities and reinforcing the Foundation's commitment to equality and inclusion. Furthermore, its activities are complemented by academic support programs, computer literacy training, community-building activities, and gatherings involving families and the wider community. This initiative is supported by Azulmarino, the official sponsor of the Real Madrid Foundation's training and supervision trips outside of Spain.
