Organiser of this year’s edition of Coca-Cola under 17 football championships expect to hold a seminar for all secretaries of the regional football associations in the country.
 The seminar will be held at the Tanzania Football Federation’s premises on March 19 and participants have been advised to report a day before.
Besides the secretaries, all coordinators of the Secondary Schools games (UMISSETA) have also been invited to attend the seminar.
According to the TFF information officer Boniface Wambura, letters of invitations have already been dispatched to the invitees.
 The seminar aims at imparting knowledge and overview of the youth tournament which has been staged for over five years now.
 Major highlight of the seminar is expected to be adherence to age of the players to avoid cheating. Age cheating has been a huge problem recurring in the tournament in most of the editions.
The Copa Coca-Cola tourney has been a perfect stage for  football coaches and trainers to scout talents.
The tournament will kickoff from the district level before advancing to regions and then national level.
