Ayisat delivering her speech at the event
 No matter the circumstance, you can make a mark: Ayisat Yusuf Aromire.

This was indeed the words of encouragement spoken by Ayisat Yusuf Aromire during the She football campaign in Lagos.

Ayisat an ex-Falcons player based in Finland was on hand to give back to the society through The She football campaign a personal innovation by her to touch the lives of women footballers.

She gave these words of encouragement in Lagos during the seminar in Ogudu that later dovetailed into a mini-tournament on Sunday.


Participants listen with rapt attention.

The seminar was embraced by women football grassroots coaches and over a hundred women footballers.

TobexSports caught up with her and she had this to say :

"I am very fulfilled and happy fulfilling this dream, it has been from grass to grace.

Nobody gave me a chance at greatness, not even my immediate family, but with perseverance, hard work and the Grace of God I excelled"

The initiative was also supported by FARENETWORK (Football Against Racism in Europe) where she is a board member.

The She football seminar/mini-tournament will hold annually.

Ayisat Yusuf continued her good deeds as she extended her support to the annual All stars women football holding from the 8th to the 20th at the national stadium Lagos.

Elohor Godswill Ekpolo sits in the Barcelona dressing room, his Nike Tiempo boots comes off his foot as coach Jordi Vinyals pats him on the head for a great game and for good measure too. The talented right-back had earlier scored for FC Barcelona's Juvenile A squad (equivalent of the Barcelona C team) as they whipped Celtic 3-0 to round up the group stage matches of the 2013/14 Uefa Youth Champions League. The goal was his third in six group stage matches, as Barcelona's Under-19 team ran riot collecting 16 points from a possible 18in a group that also had the youth sides of AC Milan, Ajax and Celtic. Ekpolo is highly rated in the Blaugranas circles and is tipped to become a first team star very soon to follow the footstep of his more illustrious and established La Masia graduates like Carles Poyul, Sergio Busquets, and more recently Cameroonian youngster Jean Marie Dongou.

The former Kano Pillars midfielder says he is comfortable with the deal as it affords him a new challenge and an avenue to put himself in the window. "I'm really happy with the deal. It's a new challenge that I am looking forward to," he told 9jafooty from his base in Kuwait. "A lot of people were surprised I chose Kuwait, but I am happy. Kuwait will be a springboard to better things. This is just a stepping stone. "I hope to give my all to the fans of the club and also help the team win laurels during my stay here." Abdullah
