When we come close to the mark,
We have made an effort.
When we reach the mark,
We have succeeded.
But when we exceed the mark,
We have excelled!
EXCELLENCE is the place beyond the mark.
Thank you for the interest you have shown in our work and the time you set aside to go through our website. Permit me to draw your attention to some current trends at ADISA through this brief note. In 2018, we succeeded to open our 4th RTC in the Littoral Region – Douala RTC, cementing our position as the fastest growing and largest sports academy in Cameroon and in this year of our 10th anniversary, we are proud to have established 6 RTCs across 3 regions. The Dubai Super Cup project in 2019 was a rollercoaster characterized by zero sponsorship, tight deadlines and demanding clients and collaborators. However, our staff maintained a positive attitude, discipline and consistency because they knew that in the end, we are measured not by how much we undertake, but by what we finally accomplish.
The newly launched Next Heroes project in Douala during the 2019/2020 academic year was unfortunately put on a hold because of the COVID-19 pandemic. We only resumed in 2021 amidst the huge financial setbacks caused by the current pandemic, which hit us in the wake of our recovery from the heavy financial toll of the Dubai Super Cup in 2019. To be candid, the pressures of the last three years have been truly grinding. Notwithstanding, ADISA continues to steadily improve her capacity and potential to deliver a strong, resilient and world-class sports training and development program in Cameroon. The merits of our success mostly fall on our ability to conduct our business with integrity and passion, not only because these are the standards that our communities and families expect from us, but because this is an integral part of who we are.
We are aware that if our actions must be meaningful, then we must ensure that our young athletes are constantly being challenged in an environment that best inspires their development. By God’s great grace, we continue to play a lead role in the country as we guide the youths on how to make the right choices, develop positive convictions and take advantage of rare opportunities in the pursuit of their interests and dreams. This is what we must do to maintain our ambition and build on our vision to change the world around us and so far, we are emerging one athlete stronger, one dream closer and one family happier.
