The ZanziBarracudas Academy was founded in October 2023 to fill a critical gap in Zanzibar: the lack of structured, high-quality football training for underprivileged youth.

Through football, we provide children aged 9 to 17 with a safe space to grow, develop their potential, and gain opportunities that can shape their futures.

Already, one of our players has been called up to the national youth team, and four others have earned the chance to attend trials in Italy.

Now, we are preparing for on of our biggest challenges and opportunities:

⚽️ Competing in the East African Chipkizi Cup 2025 - the biggest Youth Football Tournament in Africa! ⚽️

To make this dream a reality, we need to raise €5,000. This will cover:

⚽️ Tournament participation fees

⚽️ Equipment

⚽️ Transportation

⚽️ Accommodation

⚽️ Basic living expenses during the competition

Your donation—whether it’s €10, €100, €500, or any amount you feel moved to give, will directly support our players and help us take this important step forward. With your help, we’re not just building footballers, we’re building future leaders for Zanzibar.
