Coach
Awaab's Role
Being a football athlete himself, Awaab serves as a coach in the project. Having just started his coaching career, Awaab is passionate about exploring engaging coaching methods to ignite children’s interest in playing football and cultivate their habits to engage in physical activities regularly to maintain health and fitness. Awaab is fully aware of the vital role that physical education and sports activities play in children’s overall development and well-being.
“In Pakistan, there is so far no concept of physical education which is essential for the development of a child. Therefore, 11 for Health is a great initiative developed by FIFA. This project can really help developing countries like Pakistan to adopt it as a mature curriculum to fill the gap in our current education system.”
