The Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) has moved to establish U18 and U19 age group national teams which will help create a good channel for young players before they join the U20 national team.
This was disclosed by the federation’s technical director, Oscar Mirambo, who said the development comes after learning there was a big gap that young players had to navigate after playing for the U17 Serengeti Boys.
“Previously, it was hard for a youth player who played in U17 competition to get a direct chance of playing in the U20 squad because of physical demand that is why we saw it fruitful to establish the age categories of U18 and U19 respectively to accommodate them,” Mirambo was quoted by Daily News.
