The coaching staff of the National Youth Team, born in 2008, exhibited their dedication by attending the match between Al-Mokawloon and Farco for the 2008 league.
The game concluded with the former’s victory in a penalty shootout after the original time ended with a 2-2 draw.
The coaching team, led by Ahmed Al-Kas, the head coach, and Mohamed Ibrahim, the general coach, closely followed the performance of the young players during the Al-Mokawloon and Farco encounter.
Ahmed Raouf, the assistant coach, and Ayman Hafez, the team’s administrative director, were also present in the Al-Ahly vs. Zad match, which ended with Al-Ahly’s triumph with a score of 3-1.
This strategic attendance forms part of an ongoing initiative by the coaching staff to identify and assess emerging talents across various clubs in the Republic League.
It follows the conclusion of the first training camp for the youth team, held over four days in Alexandria.
The coaching team had previously selected 72 players for the final camp, divided into two groups, with each group continuing the camp for two days.
The coaching staff, comprising Ahmed Al-Kas as the head coach, Mohamed Ibrahim as the general coach, Ahmed Raouf as the assistant coach, Ahmed Fawzi as the goalkeeper coach, and Ayman Hafez as the administrative director, is working diligently to shape the future of Egypt’s young football talents.

The youth team’s first official commitment is scheduled for April, participating in the initial round of qualifiers for the Africa U-17 Cup of Nations, the gateway to the 2025 FIFA U-17 World Cup.
