PRESIDENTof the Nigeria Volleyball Federation, Musa Nimrod, has again showed his passion for the development of sports in the country by donating trophies and medals for the volleyball event of the sixth Lagos Inter- Schools Sports Fiesta, which will begin on May 31.
Speaking during the presentation of items to the organisers, Nimrod commended them for taking volleyball to schools, adding that sports development must start from the grassroots.
“For volleyball to grow, we need to focus more on grassroots and our schools is the best place to start. We, at the federation, are ready to support volleyball at grassroots level because this will help us discover future players, who will replace the ageing ones.
“We are happy with what Wonderland Sports is doing and you can see that it is a programme we should all support, especially since this programmme is endorsed by Lagos State government through the Sports Commission,” he said.
