Floorball

The Floorball Association of Nigeria is spreading it's tentacles to Schools for effective development of the Sport, this was stated by the Secretary General of the Association, Mr. Henry Oluoma during their maiden event held at the Floorball court of the National Institute for Sportsin Lagos on Wednesday January 26, 2022. The Germany based Floorball administrator said this action was the fallout of the world body's meeting held in December where he was given the responsibility to ensure that the sport grows beyond it's present state not only in Nigeria, but the entire African region.   Based on this, Mr. Henry Oluoma hinted that some companies in Germany have promised to support his course by donating Floorball equipment to Nigeria to aid speedy development of the game.   Meanwhile, President of Floorball Association of Nigeria,  Ms Maduka Chinenye, has blamed Covid-19 pandemic for the inactivity that have impeded the growth of the sport in recent time, but assured that all lost ground will be covered in no distant time.   Not forgetting how Nigeria conquered Africa with a depleted team of only 7 players in Cote D' Ivoire in 2018 under coach Freema due to lack of funds, the  president was quick to add  that the Association will be organising a national championship within the next two months where those who will represent the country in the forthcoming Continental championship will be selected with the view to reclaim the title which is currently held by Kenya.   Maduka also called on corporate organizations and well meaning Individuals to support Flooball in Nigeria as it is an Olympic sport
