The annual Milo Football Clinic will on Saturday end in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital. Since Tuesday nearly 2,000 kids have been to the MKO Abiola Stadium to be part of the clinic being coordinated by a former Super Eagles captain, Peter Rufai. The event has held in Abuja, Benin City, Port Harcourt, Enugu and Akure.

At the final in Abeokuta, the consortium of coaches will present 32 finalists that will participate in the novelty match while the winning team will be rewarded with scholarship of N40,000 and N20,000 for the other side.

The Brand Manager of Milo, Funmi Osineye, said the clinic this year has been exciting as most of the participants are looking forward to the next edition.

Osineye, who spoke during the Akure edition of the clinic said, “I am so excited that the final of the Milo clinic has produced worthy champions for the future.

The aim of the clinic is not just to coach the children with world-class football skills, but also to equip them with key value like discipline, determination, respect, honesty and teamwork to make them succeed in life. These values are essential building blocks in raising a generation of future champions for which Milo is known for.”
