Franca Egwu, Secretary of the Ebonyi Secondary Education Board (SEB), says the board has set modalities to revive schools sports in the state in order to tap and develop raw talents.
Egwu said in Abakaliki that students would be made to effectively combine academics with sports.
She said the board had issued a schedule to secondary schools in the state to organise inter-house sports competitions and other sports activities.
“This will be carried out in the three senatorial zones of the state and the schools must inform the SEB headquarters of such activities.
“We will send representatives to monitor such sports activities to ensure that they are equitably organised.
“We have also invited the schools’ Games Masters for necessary briefings on ways of achieving these goals, to effectively tap and harness budding talents in schools,” Egwu said.
