Our Vision for Sports

• Stadium Infrastructure
  Cameroon has only a handful of quality stadiums that meet international standards, most of them built for AFCON 2021. These facilities are not evenly distributed, with many regions lacking access to world-class sports infrastructure. Maintenance challenges and limited expansion plans have slowed the growth of the country’s sports sector.
   
• Leagues & Sports Development
  While soccer remains popular and a low total grand price of  $3.24million USD , professional leagues in other sports like basketball, volleyball, rugby, and tennis are either weak or nonexistent. Local competitions often lack funding, visibility, and proper governance structures. As a result, many talented athletes remain undiscovered or are forced to seek opportunities abroad.
   

• Stadium Infrastructure
  Each region of Cameroon will have two international-standard multi-sport stadiums, designed to host soccer, basketball, volleyball, tennis, rugby, and golf. These stadiums will not only serve sports but also act as cultural and economic hubs, attracting international tournaments and tourism. Cameroon will also construct the largest stadium in the world, designed to rival and surpass India’s Salt Lake Stadium, making the nation a global icon in sports architecture.
   
• Leagues & Sports Development
  In our continued commitment to elevating the standard and global competitiveness of our national football league, we will  significantly increase the total  Grand Prize from $3 million USD to $100 million USD. This strategic enhancement will positions our league among the highest-paying football leagues across Africa and Asia, second only to the Saudi Pro League. The initiative reflects our vision to cultivate world-class talent, reward excellence, and establish our league as a premier destination for professional footballers and fans alike.

• Cameroon will establish professional leagues across multiple sports, moving beyond soccer to include basketball, rugby, volleyball, Golf, F1 racing, boxing, MMA ,tennis and ping pong with a minimum grand price of  $1million USD for each professional league. These leagues will create opportunities for athletes to grow locally , earn a decent wage while raising the nation’s visibility on global sports platforms. The professionalization of sports will also attract sponsors, boost media coverage, and inspire a new generation of athletes.
   
• Global Hosting Ambition
  By 2038, Cameroon  will begin hosting a series of major international tournaments and championships across multiple disciplines — including basketball, rugby, volleyball, golf, Formula 1 racing, boxing, mixed martial arts (MMA), tennis, and table tennis (ping pong). the FIFA World Cup, showcasing not only its sporting excellence but also its organizational and infrastructural capacity. This milestone will firmly position the nation as a premier destination for mega sporting events, stimulating tourism, global recognition, and national pride. 

• By 2052, Cameroon will host the FIFA World Cup, Together, these efforts will create a vibrant ecosystem that promotes athleticism, unity, and economic opportunity, while leaving behind a lasting legacy of infrastructure, hospitality, and sports culture that will benefit future generations and inspire the continent. 

 Championship Prize Structure 

• To elevate competitiveness and attract global attention,         

                 Cameroon will establish a standardized prize system across all               

                  sports domains (soccer,           

               basketball, volleyball, handball, rugby, tennis, golf, etc.):

• First Division Championships → Grand prize of $100 million USD awarded to the winning teams or athlete. This positions Cameroon among the highest-paying sports ecosystems in Africa, inspiring professionalism and global participation.
   
• Second Division Championships → Grand prize of $5 million USD, creating strong incentives for upcoming teams and ensuring lower-tier leagues remain competitive and lucrative.
   
• Third Division Championships → Grand prize of $1 million USD, guaranteeing that even grassroots competitions are highly valued and motivating athletes at every level of the sports pyramid.
   

• Job Creation
  Sports development will create hundreds of thousands of jobs in construction, hospitality, event management, broadcasting, coaching, and athlete development. The ripple effect will extend into tourism, retail, and advertising, making sports a viable career pathway for many Cameroonians.
   
• Economic Growth
  Sports could add $1–3 billion annually to Cameroon’s economy through stadium revenues, international tournaments, tourism, and endorsements. The World Cup alone could inject billions, with long-term benefits from increased visibility and infrastructure upgrades.
   
• Social Impact
  A strong sports culture will promote national unity and pride, as well as healthier lifestyles among the population. Grassroots programs linked to professional leagues will ensure children and youth across all regions have access to training, mentorship, and opportunities for global exposure.
   
• Global Positioning
  With the largest stadium in the world and the ability to host the 2052 FIFA World Cup, Cameroon will be recognized as a global sports powerhouse. The nation will shift from being known primarily for soccer to being a continental leader in multi-sport development and a hub for global competitions.
   

              Cameroon’s sports vision is not just about building stadiums or     

              hosting   tournaments. It is about creating a sustainable sports 

              economy, producing  world-class athletes across multiple disciplines,              

              and showcasing the nation as a  global center for sports excellence.
