The technical department of the Namibia Football Association (NFA), under stewardship of acting technical director Jaqueline Shipanga, is hosting a FIFA/ NFA goalkeepers coaching course with FIFA goalkeeper coaching expert, Alejandro Alfredo Heredia, assisted by NFA goalkeeper instructor, Ronnie Kanalelo.

Heredia is a former goalkeeper who has worked in Argentina, Mexico, Spain and South Africa, served as the Head Coach of the SAFA’s goalkeeping department, and as technical director of Diambars Academy, to name a few.
