Wolverhampton Wanderers have partnered with Momentum Academy in Harare, Zimbabwe. The move forms part of the club’s global football development expansion.
Under the agreement, Wolves will share their coaching philosophy and curriculum. They will support both recreational and development levels. Additionally, they will provide online coaching education.
Wolves coaches will travel to Zimbabwe every year. They will run development and recreational camps. Talented players may later access the club’s Golden Chance programme.
Furthermore, selected young Zimbabwean players will visit Wolverhampton. They will tour the club’s facilities and meet coaching staff. They will also train at Compton Park.
Wolves Aim to Build Pathways for Young Talent
Shawn Briscoe, Wolves’ international football development manager, welcomed the partnership.
“Everyone at Wolves is incredibly excited about this new partnership with Momentum Academy. Football has a unique power to connect communities and create opportunity, and through this collaboration, we’re proud to support the growth of the game in Zimbabwe. At its heart, this partnership is about sharing knowledge, developing young talent, and building pathways that can inspire the next generation both on and off the pitch. Momentum Academy are doing fantastic work at the grassroots level, and we’re looking forward to working closely together to help young players realise their potential and create lasting impact within their communities.”
He emphasised that the partnership focuses on knowledge sharing and youth development.
Momentum Academy Targets International Standards
Fidelis Mashonga, director of Momentum Academy, praised the collaboration.
“Wolves bring Premier League pedigree, elite coaching methodology, and a proven tradition of global player development.
“For Momentum Academy, this collaboration is far more than a milestone. It is a strategic elevation of our football ecosystem.
“Zimbabwe has an abundance of talent, yet our systems and pathways have often struggled to match that potential.
“Working with Wolves gives our players and coaches direct access to international standards, structured development frameworks, and genuine pathways that can redefine what is possible for young athletes in our country.
“This partnership strengthens our mission to build a disciplined, scalable, and internationally competitive grassroots system that can influence the future of Zimbabwean football in a meaningful and lasting way.”
He said the partnership will elevate Zimbabwe’s grassroots football structure.
