The Nigeria Volleyball Federation has announced the date for the fourth edition of the President Beach Volleyball Cup.
The President Beach Volleyball Cup is scheduled for February 13–19 at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium in Kaduna.
Martin Melandi, Technical Representative of the Nigeria Volleyball Federation, stated that the President Beach Volleyball Cup will herald the Federation's programs.
Melandi stated that the President's Cup will have two categories: junior and senior, to discover more young players.
He said further that the leadership of the Nigeria Volleyball Federation is working round the clock to ensure the beach players get adequate preparations to excel at the forthcoming African Games in Ghana as well as other championships.
Melandi said, "The Nigeria Volleyball Federation has begun its yearly program beginning with the President Beach Volleyball Cup. No stone will be left unturned in ensuring the beach players get more playing time.
"Nigeria has dominated West Africa in the junior and senior categories; it is time for us to claim back our dominance on the continent. Nigeria will be attending a series of international championships like the African Youth Games, African Games and African Beach Volleyball Championship not forgetting the Olympic qualifiers."
"The Nigeria Beach Volleyball Commission will provide an enabling environment and more playing time for the athletes to excel", he added.
