We would continue to work hard to take it to perfection. We want to make the tournament which is in its second edition a force to reckon with in the country”.
Ngwaogu said the unstable football calendar remains one of the major challenges facing organizers of Preseason Tournaments in country “sincerely, the unstable football calendar is a problem of its own in the organization of Preseason Tournaments. As it is now, all the organizers are just assuming in whatever they doing in ensuring that our teams perform adequately before the season begins.
But, no one knows the actual time the season will begin. While in the real sense, Preseasons are supposed to be the in last 60 days before the commencement of the new season. But, we would get there one day .
