A total of 40 coaches are taking part in a six-day NFF D-License Coaching Course that began on Tuesday in Abuja.
NFF Technical Director, Coach Augustine Eguavoen, explained that the D-License is a prerequisite for qualifying to take part in the C-License course, it is in modules and for beginners, and must last a minimum of 60 hours.
“Just as it is in life, everything in football is in stages. We have a lot of talented young ones out there, and it is not the way you coach adults that you coach the young ones. Coaching the young ones requires special training.
“This course is not going to be a one-off. After this national programme, we will have to take it to the Zones, and subsequently to the States. We have a total of 40 coaches undergoing this programme, and I can assure you they have a lot to learn,” Eguavoen said.
Sporting Tribune reports that after the record-setting CAF C-License programme exclusively for women coaches that took place over the months of July, August and September last year (three modules) and which involved 30 participants, the NFF organised a CAF B-License Course which saw a total of 30 participants in April this year.
There has also been a Coach Educators’ Course, which involved 25 participants, in July this year.
