They have won the cup for three consecutive times. Fosla Academy came second at the Shell Cup in 2016 where the players won individual awards such as the best defender, Highest goal scorer, Most Valuable Player and Best Goal keeper. Three Fosla Academy players represented Nigeria in the Copa Coca Cola 5 Aside international tournament in South Africa last year Three Fosla Academy players were sponsored to Russia to watch Nigeria v Croatia match in the just concluded World Cup by Coca Cola. Two Fosla Academy players were integral members of  the national Under 15 team (Future Eagles) that won silver in the just conluded African Youth Games in Algiers, Algeria. In academics, Fosla Academy performed excellently well in the recently released WASSCE results with the 17 candidates that sat for the exam all making FIVE credits including English and Mathematics. As a matter of fact, 3 students scored 'A1' in the Mathematics. The students also did very well in their 2018 JAMB results with the least result being 170 (which is above cut-off mark) and the highest result being 278.  Currently, 15 graduates among the first set of Fosla Academy are currently on scholarship in Nasarawa State University studying various academic courses.  Why not enrol your child or ward for this Summer and enjoy the bumper packages on offer! In the words is the proprietor, Alhaji Sani Lulu, the Omachi of Igala, "Any player without education is a liability to the society no matter the level of professional football he or she attains." Built on the foundation of honesty, the school recently withdrew one of her players from the national Under 17 team because he would be 17 years of age by December which violates FIFA's rule. Same thing they did in the last edition.  Recently, in Kogi state, the management of the school offered automatic scholarship to a student who was brave enough to own up that he was above 13 years when the school went for its annual scholarship scouting programme.  Fosla Academy offers boarding facilities and brings the best in your child or ward. Why not take this opportunity to offer your child/ward the best both in football and education?  For enquires, kindly call: +234(0)8160447485 or +234(0)807 674 8877.
