Gambian sports reporters will learn money skills next week at a special workshop. The Sports Journalists' Association plans two days of training for twenty media professionals. They will learn budget reading techniques and financial reporting methods during March 15-16, 2025. The program aims to help reporters understand where sports dollars go.

Omar Jarju leads the journalists' group and believes money knowledge makes better sports coverage. He wants reporters to ask tough questions about how sports groups spend cash. The training represents just one step toward improving Gambian sports reporting standards. Better financial understanding benefits both journalists and sports fans across the country.

Sports stories often miss money angles because reporters struggle with budget documents. This training fixes that problem by teaching journalists to read financial statements from teams and leagues. Fans deserve to know why teams make decisions about players, buildings, and ticket costs. Clearer money reporting helps everyone understand the business side of athletics.

Pa Omar Jobarteh will teach all sessions as the main instructor from GTBank Gambia Limited. His experience as Chief Financial Officer brings real-world knowledge to the classroom. The association expects these newly trained journalists will create deeper stories about sports money matters. Their improved skills should lead to more transparency in Gambian sports organizations.
