3.Barca foundation and tax free cooperatives:Beggar cooperatives can be encouraged to embrace sports and education.This could also help refugees (through the MeS project).This attracts goodwill and tax holidays that can be used to expand capacity.

4.Emmanuel Amuneke should be persuaded to organize academies for every Local Council Development Area,Local Government Area in Lagos.This should be arranged in the form of college sports with scholarships (deduction in school fees) and revolving grants for quality participation.The Lagos State Government could provide logistics and this will act as a follow up to the MTN street soccer project.

Advice for startup fan clubs

Here is some free advice to start up fan club branches in Nigeria
1.Register with authorities.The Corporate Affairs Commission knows you exist and you have access to funding and some large chunk of credibility.This can enable one acquire and keep fans

2.Get a good lawyer and financial advisor.A lawyer is vital for the survival of any organization.This could prevent expensive legal battles and could be cheaper in the long run.A financial advisor could enable fan clubs generate effective demand for goods and services.Suppose Barca Kids Nigeria takes off and parents realize that their children are getting better through membership...More members,more money.

3.Register fans and provide identification.The first proof of true membership is a registeration number and password that can be used to access our club's official website.Fan clubs could wholesale these information and must ensure that security measures are applied by all.
