Meetings in China

Day 1 – 03/31/2023

OFFICE: Shanghai Football Association (SFA)

⁃ DIFA and SFA held a meeting and discussed the possibilities of holding events for the deaf in football and what kind of support is needed.

⁃ DIFA pointed out to the SFA that football for the deaf and football for the hearing are almost the same thing. The only difference is the referee with the flag, and you can easily prepare for this.

⁃ Football with special needs, for example, for the blind and disabled, is different from football for the deaf, because it has different requirements, and this was explained during the meeting.

Hearing coaches and judges can easily be involved in competitions for the deaf, since only small requirements need to be learned.

⁃ DIFA and SFA plan to hold events by 2024 after the SFA clarifies all the necessary details.

DIFA Office in China

⁃ DIFA visited the Chinese office of DIFA in Shanghai. We discussed the development needs of DIFA football in the world and in China.

⁃ Meeting with the Honorary President of DIFA Asia and a member of the People’s Political Consultative Council of China.

⁃ DIFA China plans to locate the DIFA headquarters in China.

One of the important steps to take is to create a market for trading, which is a big step because of the huge market in China.
