BROUGHT BY LZ ENTERPRISE & PURDUE UNIVERSITY TO TANZANIA
HON. SHAMUHUNA, HON. BENDERA AND TANZANIAN SPORTS DELEGATION DEPART FOR INDIANAPOLIS – USA ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17.

LZ Enterprise brings a wide range of opportunity to Tanzania through sports-tourism, promotions and now youth development through sports.


LZ Enterprise has joined forces with Purdue University, University of Indiana, University of Notre Dame, The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the Indiana Pacers Organization (NBA) and the Indiana Sports Corporation (ISC) to bring a top-ranked youth sports program, called USPORT, to assist in bringing sports back to all secondary schools in Tanzania.


LZ Enterprise and the USPORT delegation will be hosting the following official Tanzanian delegation in Indianapolis, Indiana USA from Nov 17 -21:


Hon. A.J. Shamuhuna (Zanzibar): Deputy Chief Minister of Information, Culture, Sports
Mr. J. Kilangi (Zanzibar): Secretary of Hon. Shamuhuna
Hon. Joel Bendera (Tanzania): Deputy Minister of Information, Culture, Sports
Mr. Leodegar Tenga (Tanzania): President of Tanzania Football Federation
Mr. Frank Macha (Tanzania): Principle Sports Officer
Mr. Richard Kasesela (Tanzania): President of Tanzania Basketball Federation
Ms. Laurel Hubert (USA): LZ Enterprise NGO Co-Director


The visiting delegation will visit a host of high level destinations, from the Governor of Indiana’s Office to the American College of Sports Medicine, NCAA, the National Institute for Fitness & Health, and dinner with the Pacers NBA team and a Pacers Game vs. Atlanta Hawks in Box #1 with Larry Bird and Sam Perkins.


USPORT is designed to provide youth sports programs in all regions of mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar. All sports development depends on a broad youth sports program that builds a sports culture and cultivates and identifies future champions while building community infrastructure for all. USPORT will build this fundamental sports infrastructure by strengthening existing programs and focusing on the Tanzanian school system.

USPORT will train coaches, referees, recreation league managers, tournament and game day supervisors, as well as sports mentors/teachers to present “Time Out” sessions through a program hosted in the U.S.

All youth will take “Time Out” sessions on leadership, tolerance and conflict resolution, sportsmanship and character development, health and HIV/AIDS education, and community service.

  2. Hawa jamaa walioanzisha hii program wana akili sana, nawapongeza. Program kama hizi za exchange zilitufanya baadhi yetu sisi watanzania kuijua Marekani.Mimi niliijua marekani na programa ya CCUSA, lakini watanzania walizamia sana Marekani hadi program hii ikafutwa nchini Tanzania. Wabongo bwana!!!Kila wakipelekwa hawarudi!!Lakini mimi nilirudi na nipo bongo naliendeleza libeneke kama kawa

    Who are LZ enterprise?
    From what I understand they have had a sports meeting in Dar in 2005, then took the white caps to Tanzania when they had won promotion to MLS not even MLS at time, then Tanzania government gave them $2.5 million to develop sports...

    How is this possible? What have they done?

    I played college soccer for Penn State USA, I will develop sports for $500,000 saving $2 million

    Someone help, is Tanzania just throwing money away?....
