FOR six very successful years, Munich-based Allianz SE, a giant German global financial services (insurance and asset management) company has sponsored through its Brunei associate company, National Insurance, two places for qualified 14 to 16-year old local footballers for an annual football camp training programme conducted by the coaches of current German Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.
National Insurance General Manager Kolja Klawunn said the 2016 Junior football camp would be held on August 25-30.
“As football is Brunei’s number one sport, National Insurance is very pleased to once again select two young candidates (Bruneians and permanent residents) to represent Brunei Darussalam in this once in a lifetime opportunity,” he added.
Candidates will first need to apply at www.fcb.de/AJFC. Shortlisted candidates will then be tested.

“We want them to go to Bayern Munich (who have just won their record fourth successive Bundesliga title) to learn from their coaches, to interact with their peers from around the world, come back excited, share their experiences and help Brunei junior football progress,” he said.
The closing date is June 30.
