Keep your eyes open for a plan this year to find the very best young footballers in the country. Aspire Football Dreams is a worldwide search for the stars of tomorrow. Since 2007, when the project was launched, over 1 million young footballers from Asia, Latin America and Africa have been tested to see if they have what it takes to become a top player of the future. With support from Nike and Unicef, and with the involvement of coaches from Barcelona, the top players from each region travel to Doha in Qatar and are hosted at Aspire Academy, where they receive top-level training during their sports scholarship. For the first time, Aspire will this year bring their search to Cambodia and will have five centers of excellence across the country as they aim to identify the best footballing talent at U-14 level. The best prospects from the five centers will go into a final selection pool and only the very best will be chosen to move onto the final selection stage, to be held in a regional center in Vietnam. This is a never-before opportunity for the cream of Cambodian youth football to rise to the top. It promises to be a memorable year for some.

Wow! That's exciting. What an opportunity for kids! Hope one or two can strike gold.
We certainly hope that players from the PPCFC Academy will have a good chance of making some of those places in the final selection. They have made remarkable progress for the year they have been in the Academy, showing they are willing to work hard, knuckle down, act responsibly and take on board the advice of their coaches. Their football ability has progressed to a very high level, they play the game the right way and they have at the same time, understood the need to combine football progress with academic success.
They certainly deserve the success they have already achieved this past year. Let's hope there's more to come in the future.
What about Nike The Chance?
Will they come to Cambodia also?
This one looks like they're focused more on teenager around U17 & U18.
There's been no suggestion that a 2nd proposal, such as Nike's The Chance, will be coming to Cambodia soon. We'll have to wait & see.
