Head of Technical committee of the present National U-12/U15 Handball Championship in Sokoto, Ferdinand Imama, believes the Championship has provided the Federation with an outlet to uncover excellent potential.
This was stated by Mr. Imana while speaking to journalists at the Championship’s Giginya memorial stadium.
According to him, a number of talents have been discovered, and the bulk of them will be called up for national age grade assignments when the need arises.
He claimed that the Sokoto 2021 championship has given Nigerian kids an opportunity to express their talents rather than loitering on the streets and causing a nuisance in society.
