Taiwo Awoniyi Foundation Extends Grassroots Football Project Across 16 Kwara LGAs
The Taiwo Awoniyi Foundation, in partnership with the Kwara State Football Association, has expanded its grassroots sports development programme across all 16 Local Government Areas of Kwara State, delivering boreholes, jersey sets, footballs, and cash grants to local football councils.
The comprehensive initiative combines sports development with community infrastructure, ensuring that selected communities across the 16 LGAs benefit from newly constructed solar-powered borehole projects alongside sports equipment.
Under the foundation's flagship Talent Hunt scheme, 48 emerging footballers comprising three selected players from each Local Football Council are undergoing an intensive screening exercise supervised by football trainers invited from the United Kingdom to prepare them for potential international career opportunities.
The visiting British technical team is also conducting a four-day capacity-building workshop for grassroots coaches across the state to refine their technical knowledge, tactical methods, and talent identification skills.
Commending the gesture, the Chairman of the Kwara State Football Association, Alhaji Idris Abdullahi Musa (Thuraya), described Awoniyi's intervention as an unprecedented investment in both sports and community welfare, praising the inclusion of clean water infrastructure for local communities.
The Super Eagles forward, who currently plays for Coventry City, has continued to expand his humanitarian footprint across Kwara State through sustainable sports and social interventions.
