NFF Will Begin CAF-C Coaching Course For Men - Gusau Reveals

President of Nigeria Football Federation, Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau has revealed that the football body will begin a CAF-C coaching course for men, BSNSports.com.ng reports. 

Speaking on Monday at the opening ceremony of the three-module CAF-C License Coaching Course (exclusively for women) in Abuja, Gusau pledged that the men will not be neglected, as there are plans for a CAF-C program for them in a number of weeks.

Gusau stated that football being for all – men, women, young and old – the present NFF administration will always support women coaches to get employment with either government-owned, privately-owned or community-owned clubs after building their capacity to a certain level.

“FIFA has been putting much premium on women football over the years, and we are also happy to follow suit. Women football continues to grow worldwide, and our country should not be any different. Whatever we are doing, without training those who train the footballers, we are not doing anything meaningful. Those who train the players must continuously improve their own capacity in knowledge of modern tactics and techniques in order to make our teams much better.

“This is the whole essence of the women-exclusive CAF-C License Course. By next year, we hope to conduct a CAF-B Course, and by the following year, perhaps a CAF-A Course.”
