Football co-operation between Lebanon and Sweden
The LFA's president Mr. Hashem Haidar discussed
football co-operation between Lebanon and Sweden after he met a
Swedish sports delegation of Svarker Johnson, Bonts Sandel and
Peter Barg and they were accompanied by Wadi' el Ashakar, a
Lebanese who is living in Sweden.
The Swedish delegation asked Mr. Haidar to
provide all the possible conditions to make youth camps for
Swedish teams in Lebanon and hoped that there will be technical
co-operation in this domain.
Mr. Haidar appreciated this idea and he was
positive concerning this issue where he ascertained the
importance of exchanging visits between the clubs and the teams
of both countries. Furthermore, he asked Swedish assistance in
the LFA's ambitions to develop the refereeing system by sending
a Swedish refereeing expert to hold training courses for
Lebanese referees. The delegation complied with this demand and
promised to take direct procedures.
Finally, both sides ascertained the importance to
continue talks and do whatever it takes to help both Swedish and
Lebanese football.
