Digicel Bermuda announced the three footballers selected to travel to the Caribbean to participate in the Digicel/Chelsea FC Kick Start Academy in October.
Omar Wilson, Enyche Zuill and Andrew Kempe were selected earlier this year to attend the Academy, unfortunately Kempe will not be travelling due to injury.
But the boys now find out that they are heading to Manchester City. Manchester City FC and New York City FC have launched a new multi-year partnership with Digicel, the number one communications partner across the Caribbean, Central America and South Pacific.
The Barclays Premier League Club and new Major League Soccer franchise will come together with the leading telecoms brand to create a wealth of multi-media content, as well as community coaching and once in a lifetime opportunities.
In a landmark new partnership, a first for either club in the region, Manchester City, New York City FC and Digicel will work together on a range of community initiatives, unique content interaction across broadcast, digital and mobile – as well as promotional opportunities, VIP attendance at games in Yankee Stadium, New York to enjoy the MLS and at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester to enjoy Premier League games.
The partnership will also see collaboration on Digicel’s Kick Start coaching programme which delivers clinics across 15 markets annually and further coaching opportunities for up to 24 aspiring young footballers to take place in the training Academies of New York City FC, Manchester City FC and Melbourne City FC.
This exciting new partnership is the next evolutionary stage in the already well-established Digicel Kick Start programme – delivering more interaction for more fans with more big clubs than ever before in the world’s most popular sport.
