嵩山少林武僧团培训基地请到的足球教练是喀麦隆的一位退休足球运动员，名叫Alphonse Marie Tchami Djomaha。

The temple set up Shaolin Football School for young players, and employed Tchami as coach. The martial art training base has more than 10,000 students training Kungfu, a Chinese martial art. The football school will select from 2,000 kungfu monks under the age of 10 for special training. Shi Yanlu, premier martial art coach, said he hopes the combination of Kungfu and football will help lift China's football industry out of the mire.
培训基地目前有超过一万名学武术的学员。足球学校将在两千名十岁以下的小武僧中进行选拔，参加足球特训。武术总教头释延鲁说，他希望将中国功夫和足球融合起来，振兴中国足球事业。
