The first-ever CAF Coaching Instructors’ Course in Nigeria being organised by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is scheduled to hold from 5th-15th July at the NFF/FIFA Goal Project, MKO Abiola National Stadium, Abuja.
According to the NFF, the train-the-trainers programme has the approval of the Confederation of African Football (CAF), which is sending Ethiopian official Abrham Mebratu, a CAF elite instructor and FIFA technical expert, to conduct the course.
NFF’s Technical Director, Coach Augustine Eguavoen told thenff.com that a carefully-selected group of 15 coaches will benefit from this pacesetting programme, and this will then form the vanguard of the determined drive by the NFF to improve the lot of Nigerian coaches.
“This programme is with an objective towards enhancing the capacity of Nigerian coaches. There are changes to methods, tactics and techniques almost every day, and our coaches must be aware of these changes and be able to implement them to make our teams and clubs better, and able to compete favourably internationally.
