Ahead of the upcoming Inter-Hall football fixtures against Kuti Hall, Zik Hall organizes the first-ever night training session.
On Friday, 3rd September, Zik Hall will be clashing with Kuti Hall in the second fixture of the Inter-hall Football Competition scheduled to start on the same day. The inter-hall tournament comes ahead of the pre-scheduled inter-faculty games, which come up later in September.
In preparations, team members of the Zik Hall football squad held their first training session tonight under floodlights at Maracana. Kester Tomiwa, a member of the coaching crew stressed the need to have such training sessions as there is little time for preparations, taking into account concurrent preparation arrangements for the Inter-faculty games.
Speaking on the team’s preparedness, Kester made clear intentions to arrange regular training without leaving doubts on holding subsequent night sessions. Facilitating this novelty, a temporary installment of floodlights at Maracana is being arranged while hopes for permanent facilities are expected.
Peter Akande, the Minister for Sports while commenting on the level of preparation stated that “We are ready physically and mentally for this competition and we won’t allow the previous mistakes which were made by our ancestors to repeat itself“
Zikites are encouraged to show massive support on Friday, 4:00 pm, at SUB field in the showdown against Kuti Hall.
