Lagos Judo Slam Tourney Underway At Rowe Park
The Lagos State Judo Association with support from Lagos State Sports Commission is currently organising an Under-17 Judo Slam Championship at the Mobolaji Johnson Sports Centre, Rowe Park, Yaba.
The championship is being organised to discover new judokas and nurture them towards representing Lagos State in future competitions especially as there is need to replace the dwindling pool of aged athletes.
According to the Secretary of the Lagos State Judo Association, Mojisola Aluko, the objective of the event is to enhance grassroots sports development through discovery and grooming of talented students in consonance with the State Government’s resolve to make Lagos a sports hub in Africa.
The Under-17 Judo Slam Championship would also serve as an avenue for the association to keep a tab on the strength, level of preparedness of athletes.
