The Romanian Football Federation, together with Friedrich Naumann Foundation, have started the registrations for the Youth Council program 2020.

At its 5th edition, the program is dedicated to young people between the ages of 19 and 35, girls and boys, eager to actively get involved in the development of the sports community in Romania. This year, the Youth Council will run exclusively online, between 21-24 April.

Launched in 2017, the Youth Council program aims to bring close to football  young people with initiative and community development ideas, which can be materialized through projects where football plays the role of social link.

`Youth Council is more than an event for young sports enthusiasts, it is a community which grows from year to year. We have been able to build this community since the first edition of Youth Council, together with passionate, hard working young people willing to contribute to the development of the sports community in Romania. Some of the former participants have continued to be involved in sports projects and we are proud to work with them today and to see how they have an impact in sport, a field which has the power to influence so many generations and to build so many communities`, said Diana Pirciu, Manager of Educational Projects of the Romanian Football Federation.
