The executive committee of FCT Squash Association has begun efforts to ensure renovation of two abandoned courts for the sport in the nation’s capital.
Sports247.ng gathered that the association’s chairman, Edem Selong is in the forefront of the effort that will commence in January.
Selong said the immediate priority of the association is to resuscitate that two abandoned squash courts at Old Parade Ground in Abuja, in order to provide conducive training centres for lovers of the sport.
Selong, who was elected chairman of the association last month, added that his leadership aims to promote the game for longevity and healthy living.
He declared: “It is imperative for the two squash courts, which incidentally, are the only two courts owned by the FCT, to be revitalized and put to use.
“This so as to take care of the teeming crowd of squash players, who are daily wandering about the FCT looking for where to find a befitting court to play and keep themselves busy and promote their health.
“We also want to use the facilities to groom our talents in the field of squash in order to raise a standing team for any competition.
“We don’t need to be running helter-skelter whenever we need to present athletes for any competition.”
