Ahead of the International Handball Federation Trophy 2022 for Africa Zone 3 set to hold in Ivory coast, the National Under 18 and 20 handball male teams have arrived training camp in Lagos in preparation for the event billed to hold November 21 to the 27, 2022.
The two national teams led by Coach Emeka Nnamani for the under 18 boys team and Coach Fidelis Obi, the gaffer for the under 20 boys teams are undergoing intensive training programme at the Rowe Park Sports Center in Yaba, Lagos.
Several of the players invited for national team duties were involved at the recently concluded Prudent Energy Handball Premier League 2022 and the coaches feel their fitness level ahead of the championship is in top shape.
Coach Fidelis and Coach Emeka both echoed the fact the Handball Federation of Nigeria (HFN) have been supportive and they have been having the best of camping experience for the teams respectively.
Previous championships for the IHF Trophy 2022 for the Africa Zone were held in Harare, Zimbabwe, Moroni in Comoros, Nairobi in Kenya and very recently Conakry in Guinea.
