"We place great emphasis on infrastructure and, most importantly, raising a sports-loving generation. We are making an effort to educate children as well as to raising good players and sport lovers through a variety of projects we have been carrying out with the TFF since 2007. We are delighted to have reached out to over 250,000 children to date as a result of these efforts," said Zuhal Şeker.
In the mean time, TFF officials emphasized the contribution Grassroots Day will make to further expand the Soccer for Children program.
