Gulf Weekly Chance for young soccer talent

Building on its success from the earlier five seasons, VIVA Bahrain, the official partner of Manchester United, is launching the sixth season of its Manchester United Soccer Schools programme (MUSS).

All boys and girls of all nationalities aged 13-15 (born in 2002, 2003, 2004) with a passion for football can register for the try-outs where 22 ‘exceptional shortlisted talents’ will be chosen to spend a week of professional football training sponsored by VIVA at the club’s Parrington grounds in the UK.

The unique format of the VIVA MUSS programme ensures that all registered candidates get an equal opportunity to showcase their skills during the try-outs tournament on April 22-23 at Bahrain Football Association outdoor playgrounds.

VIVA will be hosting coaches to help in scouting Bahrain’s best 22 young talents. Awards for Best Player, Best Striker and Best Goalkeeper will also be distributed by the coaches based on a multi-parameter evaluation including physical, technical and individual skills.

Following their selection, the 22 will win a free all-expense paid trip to the UK to get hands-on experience with professional football players and coaches from July 14-23. With state-of-the art equipment, the winners will undergo the same training as the expert footballers and train at Parrington grounds.

Registration is now open at the VIVA City Centre outlet or via VIVA’s website www.viva.bh.com.
