With the slogan ‘Football is for everyone’, Twelve Football Training Center and Neo Child Care Center have signed an agreement with the aim of running a special football training program for neurodiverse children.
According to the agreement, Twelve Football Training Center, in collaboration with Neo Child, will run a special program called ‘Let’s Play Together’ targeting children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Down syndrome. Twelve Football has stated that it is going to run this special program along with its regular grassroots training program. It has stated that the training for normal children and these children will be held at different times.
Twelve Football is run by former national football team captain Biraj Maharjan and goalkeeper Bikesh Kuthu with the aim of developing children's football skills, while Neo Child is an organization run by former national football team physiotherapists Sameed Katila Shrestha and Suraj Bhusal that provides educational and specialized services for neurodiverse children, including children with autism spectrum disorder and Down syndrome.
The partnership was established to address the need for children who experience difficulties in social interaction and participation in group activities due to autism, ADHD, intellectual disabilities and other neurodevelopmental conditions, where access to sports is still limited, said former captain Biraj.
