What would it be like to intern at the Young Bafana Soccer Academy? Alessandro Pinausi reflects on his experience
My name is Alessandro Pinausi and for 10 weeks I had the opportunity to fly to Cape Town, South Africa to intern at a local soccer academy called Young Bafana Soccer Academy.
Young Bafana is a non-governmental organisation that offers a holistic type of development for children from socially disadvantaged backgrounds in South Africa using football and education as a means to do so.
It is a small NGO that relies on interns to help run the academy.
