Germany and Namibia cooperate extensively in the area of sports promotion. The DOSB regularly seconds sports experts for long and short term projects to Namibia, funded through the Cultural Relations and Education Policy Programme of the Foreign Office. So far, there have been short-term projects in the areas of football, basketball, gymnastics, refereeing and athletics. Two coaches worked for many years in the frame-work of long-term projects in the areas of football and basketball in Namibia, Klaus Stärk and Frank Albin. Aim of the projects is the support of the creation of sustainable sport infrastructure in Namibia.

In Addition, the DFB Sport School in Hennef as well as the universities of Mainz and Leipzig regularly offer the opportunity for Coaching courses annually.
