scouting, coaching and lots more.

checked the course outline, I saw that the courses are very rich and will be of
great benefit to everyone here. Going forward, we should be able to learn from
here how we should play our football in Nigeria. There is a lot to learn, I
must say. So, much to be shared from the club level and of course, which should
rub off on our National teams too", concluded Dikko.
