The Chairman of Abia Warriors Football Club of Umuahia, Coach John Sam Obuh has once again demonstrated his philanthropic gesture with the sponsorship of the Abuja 5-aside football scouting tournament.
The tournament which is being organised by Wacky Place House, is geared towards discovering young football talents that could be contracted to any football club, and is scheduled to take place all weekends of July 2024 at Planet Futsal pitch, Utako, Abuja.
According to the organizers, each team will consist of eight players while registration fee is N30,000 only.
The winner of the tournament goes home with the sum of N250,000, while the first and second runners-up will be rewarded with N150,000 and N70,000 respectively.
Recall that the Abia Warriors Chairman, who was the former Nigeria national U-17 and U-20 Head Coach, had also sponsored a coaching clinic for grassroot coaches in Abia State last year, and this forthcoming event in Abuja presents yet another opportunity for young footballers to showcase their talents even as they stand the chance of being recruited by professional football club’s within and outside country.
