Football Develop

Associations and Academies

The final game of the first U15 Girls Petrichor Tournament in Yaounde, Cameroon, was over. In an exciting upset, Regina FC narrowly beat Green City to become the tournament champions. Green City, coached by Armand Bessala, normally dominated the youth competitions, especially on the girls side, but not this time. Coach Biyong Auguste of Regina FC and his team battled through the group stages and semifinals to get a shot at beating a top team, signaling a new era of girls football in Cameroon. With handshakes and congratulations, Coach Biyong and his team celebrated their big win! Coach Biyong, known as “The Educator,” used his teaching background to develop deep relationships and techniques with his players. He was part of the initial group of coaches that formed the original Petrichor Football Association and over the years has improved and added depth to his academy through community service projects, character development, and growing a quality youth girls program.
