World’s shooting coaches converge on Abuja
The Nigeria Shooting Federation President Oladeji Adeoye has said the International Shooting Sport Federation (ISSF) Grade D Coaching Course will begin in Abuja from Jan. 21-26.
Adeoye, a retired brigadier-general said on Tuesday that the global event was the first to be hosted by the federation since its establishment in 1986.
He urged the nation’s coaches to register for the course so as to become ISSF certified coaches instead of going abroad to acquire the certificate.
“I am very happy to see our board’s efforts yielding significant fruits since it was inaugurated on July 21, 2017.
“Applicants for ISSF Grade D coaching certificate in pistol and riffle from around the world will participate in the course.

ISSF’s Grade A tutors and ex-world shooting champions will serve as resource persons during the course.
