November 13 – The Asian Football Development Project (AFDP), one of whose main goals is to use football as a tool for social change and improvement across the region, has agreed to host the Soccerex Asian Forum in Jordan for another two years.
The deal was signed by FIFA vice-president and AFDP Chairman and Founder Prince Ali Bin Al Hussein and Soccerex CEO Duncan Revie, designed partly to strengthen business side of the game in Asia whilst at the same time raising awareness of a number of social causes being carried out across the continent by the non-profit making AFDP.
The event, which made its Asian debut this year, gave the region a fresh platform from which to highlight the Continent’s most pressing issues and will be staged in mid-April in 2015 over two days.
