FWC Champions explains private schools exemption from maiden FCT schools football tournament

The maiden edition of the FWC Champions FCT Football Tournament for public schools has already generated a level of attention from relevant stakeholders.

However, there are concerns raised by private schools, which has been exalted by the press on their exclusion from the highly rated competition which requires an explanation from the organizers.

In a Press Conference held at the Counseling Room, Family Worship Centre, on Wednesday the LOC chairman Mr. Promise Uwaeme explained that there is a need, to begin with this level and then get to that point in the subsequent editions where private schools can be incorporated.

He further stressed that this is the first of its kind and there will be more to happen in the future.

“Right now, we are dealing with 60 teams, the initial plan was to start with junior secondary schools and senior but we found out that the juniors have over 200 schools while the senior has about 63 teams. So, we had to settle for the seniors alone.” He said
