Former Nigeria forward Daniel Amokachi   was  at   the Meadow Hall Summer Football Camp 2018 helping to develop young  footballers  as the  Meadow Hall Group continues its sports development programme.

The six-day camp, which  commenced on July 23  and finished on  July 28 at the Mead Green Turf, Meadow Hall, Lekki, Lagos, opened with Amokachi receiving the participants and discussing with them his expectations.

The campers enjoyed one-on-one sessions with  the  former Super Eagles player, who helped Nigeria win the 1994 AFCON in Tunisia.

The first edition tagged Meadow Hall Christmas Soccer Camp with Daniel Amokachi held in 2016  while the second edition held in the summer of 2017.

Amokachi believes the programme  had increased the participants’ enthusiasm for the game and is delighted in the improvements he saw over the course of the camp, which he believes will stand them in good stead for the future.

He  said, “Our ultimate goal is to raise world-class football stars, hence the idea of identifying them early and ensuring that they understand the fundamentals of the game.”

Mrs. Kehinde Nwani, Founder/CEO of Meadow Hall Group, says she  is delighted about the success of the camp  and commended  Amokachi, the participants, parents and the media and corporate partners for being a part of it.

Nwani said,  “At Meadow Hall, we believe children have multiple intelligences and we are very serious and focused on developing them. I am very glad and thankful to all who participated in one way or the other- students, parents, sponsors, the organising team and our able coach, Daniel Amokachi.”
