Cameroon, a great country of sport

A cold analysis of our sporting environment in its practice and teaching leads to the questioning and observation of what is done to arrive at a necessary overhaul of our sports education. Sport is a tool for strengthening national cohesion and a tremendous vector of development: We must rethink the organisation and management of sport in Cameroon.

  • Revise the relations between the public authorities and the sports federations that have public service mission by rationalising their functioning, by defining and controlling their missions.
    Revisit the content of sports training programmes.
  • Provide the country with high-level executives in the areas of sports administration, sports training and the training of highly qualified PSE teachers.
  • Meeting the challenges of sports activities in schools:

Recasting of institutions in charge of sports

  • Ensure the strict application of the Physical Education and Sports programme throughout the territory.
  • Sign performance contracts with sports federations including the regular organisation of national competitions and a major international event in Cameroon.
  • Transform the INJS (National Institute of Youth and Sports) into an Advanced School of Sports Organisations Management (ESMOS) to make a reference at national and international level (Law, Management, Sports Marketing, manage ment of sports organisations, etc.).
  • Train sports development and planning officers in decentralised communities.
  • Postgraduate degrees open to holders of ESTAPS Professional Masters.
  • Open the School of Sciences and Techniques of Physical and Sports Activities (ESTAPS).
  • Open the School of Sciences and Techniques of Social Activities (ESTAS).

Combining sports and studies
Create between junior high school, high school and undergraduate higher education sections of Sport Studies aimed at high-level sports hopefuls.

Rethinking the infrastructural environment of sport

  • Make smart investments in equipment and facilities.
  • Enable as many people as possible throughout the country to practice sport in good conditions.
  • Adopt a minimum budget 100 billion for 4 years to equip the 360 municipalities of Cameroon with minimal sports facilities to allow the decent practice of sport (outdoor stadiums, gymnasiums, etc.).
  • Require each school-based institution to have at least one sporting facility (stadium, gymnasium, etc.).
