VICTORIA, Seychelles — If there is one thing that unites Seychelles as a nation, it is football, and as the 2025 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup approaches, young and old alike are rallying behind the national team, creating a beautiful tapestry of patriotic support. Gone are the days when the people came down through these colourful flag-inspired custom-made accessories, and this is a confirmation that the 2025 FIFA Beach Soccer World Cup is not only a celebration of football but also a confirmation that the nation stands firmly behind the team.
Fans, with family members, friends, models and former supporters, are out in force, displaying the national colours, attending pre-event activities, and creating an atmosphere of anticipation across Mahé, Praslin, and La Digue. The national pride and collective energy bring the country together not only for the tournament but for the broader message of unity and resilience that beach soccer represents. The sense of duty to show pride and give support has not waned, with the nation making it clear that it is everyone who must give our support.
Our island nation is making it definitely felt that it was our duty to show our pride and that we must give our support. As the countdown to the tournament continues, organisers have urged the public to continue to embrace the spirit of the event, to wear the colours proudly, and to attend the matches in their numbers. The Seychelles Football Federation has also announced a series of community outreach activities in the lead-up to the tournament, including youth clinics, fan zones, and cultural performances.
