Ladan Bosso, Osimhen and 3 must-watch matches this weekend
It is an action-packed and decisive weekend for Nigerian players across the world led by Victor Osimhen and Ladan Bosso's Nigeria U-20 team.
He said, “Taekwondo has two forms of the sport, Kyrougi, which is fighting, and Poomsae, which is forms and patterns, and they are all scoring events, and there are world championship medal events in both events, which makes it very important for us as a federation to train our athletes so that as they compete in Kyrougi, we should be able to do the same in Poomsae, so for us, we are ensuring that the basics of the sport are addressed.
“Let me tell you that the good thing about this training is that our athletes are now understanding that it’s not normal to claim that you’re a coach, but that they need to go through the rigorous testing, and when you get such a certification as a Dan Certification Holder, it’s a world recognize certification, and I’m so happy with the class of the young ones here; our future is so bright for the game.”
Even before the Africa Games camp opens, the federation, he insisted, is working nonstop to keep its athletes in top physical condition.
