Baraki Football Club of Binshua has won
the second edition of Ndinjo Awudu Stanley's Christmas Tournament. The
boys from Binshua crushed Formation Sango of Nkambe last Sunday to grab
the trophy in a highly contested soccer fiesta at the PHS field in
Nkambe. Earlier on, Mazon girls beat Nasara girls after penalty shots to
take home the female trophy.
Addressing
soccer fans and players, the Divisional Officer for Nkambe Central Abba
Abdouraman congratulated the Ndinjo Awudu Stanley for promoting young
talents. He lauded the 14 teams that participated in the tournament for
their sense of maturity and discipline.
On
his part, the cup donor said " Wimbum has got talent" and he would
spare no efforts to make sure that these talents are exhibited. He
promised that he will make sure that the tournament is played every
year. It should be noted that this year, he introduced the female soccer
tournament and a Mini Marathon with cash prizes worth over FCFA 500.000
while more than FCFA 750.000 was dished out to the 14 teams that
participated in the male soccer championship. To Samba Kingsley, the
chairman of the organizing committee, the tournament marks the beginning
of a veritable football nursery for the Division. He added that such
initiatives that promote young talents could foster football in Nkambe
central and Donga Mantung as a whole.
