Prince Amoako Jnr has described the successful staging of the maiden Prince Amoako Jnr (PAJ) Foundation tournament as a deeply fulfilling moment, rooted in his own journey through grassroots football.
The FC Nordsjaelland forward said the motivation behind the initiative stems from the values of giving back that shaped his rise, particularly his time at the Right to Dream Academy.
“I have always been part of what a proper give-back looks like because I came through Right to Dream,” Prince Amoako Jnr said.
“We all know Right to Dream is built on giving back, so I thought, why not return with the little I have and support the community in my own way? We are just doing our best.”
The 18-year-old, who is in his first season of professional football in Denmark, has already contributed 9 goals in 19 appearances believes the foundation has only scratched the surface of what it hopes to achieve.
“We can always look forward to bigger things,” he added.
“I’m a man of big dreams and I want to help people as much as I can. This tournament has been a success and it feels amazing. This is the kind of feeling you want to have all the time, so there are greater things still to come.”
Beyond competition and prizes, Prince Amoako Jnr said the tournament was also about inspiring young footballers to believe in themselves and their abilities.
“It’s beautiful,” he said.
“Go out there and achieve your dreams. You are capable of it. Don’t let anyone stop you. If you put your mind to it, trust me, you can make it.”
The PAJ Foundation tournament brought together eight community teams in Amasaman and was widely praised for its role in promoting grassroots football development and social impact through sport.
