The Youth Sports Federation of Nigeria (YSFON), is to organise a 3-day retreat for its functioning state chairmen and secretaries.
This was contained in a statement on Thursday by YSFON’s National Secretary, Patrick Okpavuerhe.
Okpavuerhe said the retreat will hold in Abuja in December, which is to keep the promises of the Federation’s President, Dr. Nasiru Gawuna, to reposition the body.
According to him, there will be an award for the best performing state and sponsors of YSFON programmes at the end of the retreat.
Okpavuerhe said Dr. Gawuna, who is the deputy governor of Kano state, has called on all the state Excos to discharge their duties diligently and renew their commitments to the Federation at both the state and national level.
The YSFON’s Scribe assured that all the grassroots tournament in the 2018 calendar of the body will be duly executed before the end of the year.
”The retreat is in keeping with my earlier promise towards making the Federation retain its number one position as the discoverer of grassroots sports talents in Nigeria.
”We also want to assure you that all our remaining programmes for this year such as U-15 boys football and athletics championship in Bauchi, Erin ile and Kogi President Unity Cup shall be organised before the end of the year,” Okpavuerhe quoted the President in the statement.
