According to organisers, the opening ceremony which will take place at Our Lady Field in Otuocha on Wednesday, December 26, will witness the presence of all football lovers who will relish the game with gusto and enthusiasm, while extending hands of friendships in the conducive atmosphere.

The headline sponsor of the tournament, Dr. John Metchie, who spoke to newsmen about the tournament, said the event is part of his human capital development initiative.

He described grassroots football games as a veritable platform for the discovery of raw talents that would be groomed for professional football in the near future.

Metchie who is also the president-general of Umueri Community and a chieftaincy title holder of Ife-Omambala due his commitment to community and human capital development, noted that it is a unity football tournament intended to add flavour to the festive season as well as help to harness raw talents.
