The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has received approval from the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to host a CAF Educators’ Course from 16th to 25th June 2025.
“This programme is part of our quest to increase the number of CAF-Licensed Coach Educators across the length and breadth of Nigeria,” said NFF Technical Director Augustine Eguavoen.
“There will be only 20 participants. Applicants must have CAF B-License, be proficient in the English language, have a teaching background, be passionate in helping other coaches and must have competence in computer software such as PowerPoint, Excel and Word.”
Eguavoen emphasized that applicants must also be 50 years old or younger and are required to submit:
- Copies of previous coaching certificates
- A recent photograph
- The data page of an international passport
These must be emailed to nffheadofeducation@gmail.com by Friday, 25th April 2025.
“They have to submit copies of previous coaching certificates, a recent photograph and data page of their international passport to an email (nffheadofeducation@gmail.com), on or before Friday, 25th April 2025.”
He further noted that a CAF CMS Registration link would be sent to successful applicants for final registration.
This development follows the recent inauguration of the first batch of CAF B-Licence Coaching Course participants by NFF President Ibrahim Gusau on April 7, 2025, at the NFF-FIFA Technical Centre, located inside the MKO Abiola National Stadium in Abuja.
“Today marks a moment of great joy for me,” Gusau said, celebrating the continued evolution of coaching education in Nigerian football.
