Ahead of the forth-coming Olympic Qualifiers and African Championships both in El Jadida, Morocco, President of the Nigeria Wrestling Federation (NWF) Hon. Daniel Igali has assured that the nation’s athletes will get quality preparation for the showpiece.
The Africa/Oceania Tokyo 2020 Olympic qualifying tournament is expected to commence between April 2nd to 4th while the 2021 African Championships will kick-start from 6th to 11th April, 2021.
Igali told journalists that Nigerians athletes will begin camping from 6-30 March in order to get the best from them.
“As we’ve maintained, we will ensure that our athletes are adequately prepared for the Olympic qualifying tournament and also the African Championships, which follows right after,” the Wrestling Federation Chief said.
“We’ll as a result, be calling our athletes to camp on the 6th of March to the 30th of March. So, we intend to have a good three weeks of camping, with possibly a match set up in the second week of camp.
“So, we’ll bring in about two training partners (per athlete) or the two second and third athletes from different states and have a mini-wrestling competition in the camp to ensure that every athlete has between five and six matches over a two-day period to get them slightly have their heads turned around in a competition mood.”
