Samson Siasia to coach at GTBank football camp

Former Super Eagles coach, Samson Siasia, has been named as the head coach at the 2013 GTBank’s Football Development Camp holding at IITA facility in Ibadan. The camp, which will hold from September 17  – 23, will feature 40 outstanding players from the Principals Cup tournaments in Lagos and Ogun states, and the Heritage Cup.

The sponsors said the purpose of this year’s camp is to “sharpen and cultivate the football skills of the identified players by drawing from the experiences of top football coaches.”

Siasia will be assisted at the camp by former Nigeria defenders, Yisa Sofoluwe and Waidi Akanni, and former Super Falcons goalkeeper, Anne Chiejine.

Managing Director of GTBank, Segun Agbaje, said the camp would focus on strategy, tactics and conditioning as well as interactions with coaches and mentors.

Agbaje said GTBank would remain a supporter of youth football tournaments in order to use the sport to mentor pupils and develop their talents.

Chairman of the Lagos State Football Association, Seyi Akinwunmi, advised the pupils to take the football programme and their education seriously.

“There should always be a plan B in life. If one plan does not work out, you can easily fall back on the other. It is important they take their education seriously and also put their minds to the game,” Akinwunmi said.
