This Technical Development plan will direct the technical operations of the Football Federation
of Belize for the period 2021 to 2024. It will realize the vision of the FFB, which is to be a
professional, respected, and efficient organization for local and internationally recognized
football, which enhances the interests of all stakeholders and contributes to the national
development of Belize. This technical plan essentially focuses on the development of football in
Belize through grassroots football, youth football, women’s football, coach education, beach
soccer, futsal, and national teams.
In 2014, more than 90,000 students were enrolled in Belize schools, and colleges/universities at
all levels, including almost 4,000 in preschools, 63,000 in primary schools, 15,000 in high
schools and more than 22,000 in colleges/universities. This development plan aims to increase
the number of players playing football from 5% in 2018 to 20% in 2024.
