Preparations reach top gear for 4th edition of bet9ja soccer tournament in Benin city

By Nelson Dafe on September 7, 2018

The 4th edition of the Bet9ja football competition for grassroots clubs around the country will soon kick off in Benin City.

The competition has grown in status over the years because of the large number of quality teams participating and the proper management of the tournament by its organizers.

The head of the Local Organizing Committee and Bet9ja Super Agent Roland Inonoje told Daily Sports that this year's edition which would take place in Benin City,Edo state (as usual) would look to be an improvement on the high standard of the competition in the previous editions.

"We are expecting teams from near and far,in and out of Edo state to participate in the Bet9ja competition this year and we promise to leave no stone unturned in ensuring that teams get the right platform to express their talents and that fans get the opportunity of watching the future stars of the country," Inonoje stated.

Inonoje has been widely applauded by fans and participating clubs for his tireless efforts in organizing the competition which has seen clubs going home with mouth-watering cash prizes over the years.

As well,the tournament has always been well organized with no serious allegations of bad officiating or violence which sometimes mar football tournaments for grassroots clubs.

PRO of Bet9ja in Edo state Kennedy Ugbodaga informed Daily Sports that the draws for the competition would be made very soon.

"Football scouts and agents from Europe are expected to be in Benin city to watch the tournament as they have always done.Some players who featured in this tournament are playing good professional football now," Ugbodaga stated.

University of Benin (Uniben) won the last edition of the Bet9naija football tournament in front of a mamoth crowd at tje Uniben sports complex last year.
