About

The Marshall Islands Soccer Federation was founded in 2020 by Shem Livai. He was inspired by his son who desperately wanted to play soccer, but was thwarted due to a lack of regular training and facilities.

The Federation is comprised of a Marshall Islands based board and an overseas team of volunteers. Together they are pushing forwards to bring regular soccer to the islands, provide opportunities to young people, and eventually field a national team.

OUR MISSION

We provide opportunities for every Marshallese person, regardless of where they are in the world to play and coach soccer, providing a pathway for every Marshallese person both on-island and overseas to represent their national team. Furthermore, we want to use soccer to raise awareness of the existential threats facing our nation and use soccer to enact global change.

VOLUNTEERING OPPORTUNITIES

At present there are no paid opportunities within the Soccer Federation, and all team members are volunteers. We are always open to receiving applications from people who would like to volunteer with us; although you will either be able to undertake your role from your own home or be willing to cover your own expenses if you wish to travel to the Marshall Islands.

PRESS ENQUIRIES

We are always happy to respond to requests from the press. Our media team are based in the UK and are available for radio, TV, pre-recorded video, podcast, and written requests.
