Based in Huye, Southern Province, the academy will accommodate a total of 172 girls and boys selected in nine age categories between 6-14 years. The event will be attended by officials from the Ministry of Sports, Rwanda Development Board (RDB), football governing body (Ferwafa), French embassy in Kigali, and the Head of PSG academies.<\/p>\n

A yet to be announced PSG legend is also expected at the launch of the academy. Popular French social media influencer Boris Becker will attend the event before taking part in various tourism activities and exploring the best of what Rwanda has to offer.
