“Club Licensing is a tool that is going to push all of us on the continent and probably may drive the dream for Africa to win the FIFA World Cup in feature,” he added.

On his part, Middleby Robert David from FIFA said “Club licensing is a major pattern of developing football worldwide. Africa has world class players but the clubs have to provide the best with all what is required to achieve the best performance. It’s a tool for developing football and I urge club managers and CEOs to attend to it. Federation members and clubs should use Club licensing to enhance football”.
 
One of the participants, Rogers Byamukama from Uganda said “At first Club Licensing seemed to be a punishment to the Clubs in Uganda and it was difficult to implement since 2012 when we started but we have managed to educate clubs and hosting this event will change the perspective of clubs in Uganda to know more about the five pillars of Club Licensing”.
 
“Our Club football will benefit from these new updates on how to catch up with CAF Club Licensing because it’s through club football that talents can be developed in a young footballing nation like south Sudan personally am ready to implement all we have learnt here,” said Joseph Deng Kou of South Sudan.
 
Representing Seychelles, Clive Delobie, remarked “Club Licensing is a major tool in club football and development in our countries we are here to share with CAF the challenges we have face and to have solutions that we shall implement back home in order to improve our football structures from federation to clubs”.
 
And from Somalia, Nur Hassan Ahmed said “Our football is developing because of CAF ability to develop structures for clubs and if we learn all these new updates of how clubs can develop using the club licensing manual, Somalia football will soon begin to shrive on the continent.”
