History[edit]
[edit]
The Navètanes teams were first established in 1950's and throughout their history have had a combative relationship with both the FSF and Senegal's Ministry of Youth and Sport. The nature of this relationship arose in the way the Navètanes of which each resided in a particular neighbourhood, provided an emotional connection and relation between neighbourhoods and a platform for identification. It was through this sense of connection and meaning, as well as the poorly run Football League which had inconsistent refereeing, interpretations of the game and violent behaviour that the youth were naturally attracted to the Navètanes tournaments. Through this cultural association the competition became more popular whereby the Ministry of Youth and Sports initially did not appreciate the tournaments, branding them as anarchist and unorganised. Although the Ministry provided little in return in terms of leisure for the youth, meaning the Navètanes became even more popular.
The ministry then moved to create a clear separation between the Navètanes and the official league, however in 1970 it established a national body ONCAV (Organisme National de Coordination des Activites des Vacances). This pyramid structure manages the Navètanes teams, registering them as ASC's (Association Sportive et Culturelle) and this began the process by which the competition began to become more formal, although the ministry still lacked control. The following years, throughout the late 1970s and 1980s were considered the most successful years of the Navètanes with large crowds and 50,000 registered players in 600 teams across Senegal. Also with more professionalism the competition got greater equipment, boots etc.
However in 1977 relations again turned hostile where members of the Navetanes teams gained full control of ONCAV and all its committees, thus leaving the ministry without any control. This continued to several years, even through the election in 2000 where the ministries stance had changed to support the competition in order to appeal to its youth. However when the presidential election occured in 2000, ONCAV almost collapsed as the new party wanted greater regulations. Luckily the organisation survived and was eventually in 2008 officially affiliated with the FSF and thus affiliated with FIFA.[1]
