Twenty-four teams will clash in the Victor Ikpeba 5-A-Side football tournament, scheduled for 19-21 December 2024, at De Cloud Entertainment Center, Osubi, Delta State.
Tournament initiator, Victor Ikpeba, the 1997 African Footballer of the Year, announced that this year's event will feature under-20 players.
Previous editions have featured under-15 and under-17 categories, showcasing the event's commitment to developing youth football and giving back to society.
Screening and draws for this month's competition will commence on 9 December 2024 at 8 am with the tournament adopting a knockout format.
Incentives for participants include branded jerseys and cash prizes for the top four teams, plus free entry for all the clubs.
The 2024 tournament, according to Ikpeba, is organised in memory of late veteran sports journalist Dapo Sotuminu who was a pioneer inspiration behind the project.
