Over 150 taekwondists are expected to compete at the second edition of the 2017 Chika Chukwumerije Sports Foundation (CCSF) Prix Series, which holds on June 9 to 10 at the Old Parade Ground Abuja.
From the initial 112 made up of 72 kids and 40 adults that featured in the inaugural edition of the championship, the organizers have projected that more athletes are willing to be part of the tournament.
According to CCSF, four categories – kiddies, cadets, juniors and adult categories are to be jostled for by states, clubs and schools.
Also as part of efforts to ensure it is truly a grassroots development initiative, elite athletes who have represented Nigeria and other countries are not eligible to participate in the event. A total to N178,000 prize monies will be given to winners in the adult categories. Medals and certificates will be given to all medallists across all the categories.
