The Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Anambra State Chapter, has congratulated the Anambra Beach Soccer “Warriors” for winning the 2025 Nigeria Beach Soccer League title.
In a statement signed by the Chairman, Chimezie Anaso, and Secretary, Uche Ndeke, it said the team’s performance reflected the strong, resilient and determined spirit of Anambra people.
It recalled that the Anambra Beach Soccer team defeated reigning national and African champions, Kebbi Beach Soccer Club, to clinch the national title at the competition held in Abuja on Nov. 9.
The association commended the Anambra Beach Soccer Association (ABSA), led by Prof. Victor Madubuko, for launching the state into the mainstream of beach soccer.
It noted that under Madubuko’s leadership, ABSA secured the highest national honour within three years of its establishment.
It said that the achievement justified the confidence reposed in the Madubuko-led ABSA.
“It also earned the association an award as the Fastest Growing Sports Association in Anambra during the 2024 SWAN Week.
“This recognition further underscores the association’s rapid growth and remarkable contributions to beach soccer development in the state.
“We are excited to associate with your victory, which has placed Anambra convincingly on the map as a new powerhouse in African beach soccer within three years of introducing the game in the state.
“ABSA showed it meant business when it built a standard beach soccer pitch and successfully hosted national competitions on two occasions within the period.
“SWAN Anambra expresses appreciation to your dedication in creating opportunities for youth engagement and advancing sports development in the state,” it said.
