Ikpeme (Director, technical)was equally impressed, congratulating Kinetic Sports for what he described as “World class organisation” before pledging the support of the NFF for the 2nd edition stating “the federation will ensure early preparation of the Nigeria Beach Soccer Team to enable them to defend their title”.
Support from the NFF is likely to delight Copa Lagos sponsors amongst which are FCMB. The NFF have been at the forefront of the development of Beach Soccer in Nigeria. Playing an important role in the success of the Sand Eagles at last year’s 1stedition, their support this year should be reassuring for sponsors and fans of the game.

The Nigerian Football Federation has declared its full support for the 2nd edition of Copa Lagos. The Three-day Beach Soccer tournament is scheduled to hold on the 14th to 16th December this year. The NFF supported the 1st edition of Copa Lagos and were key in assisting the Sand Eagles with their preparations to win the tournament.
