In his welcome address, the Director, Niger Delta Science School, Mr Emmanuel Egbuchiem said that the school attaches importance to  sports in order to ensure  the overall development of the students.
“The importance of sports in the overall development of a child cannot be ignored. This is because a healthy sprint, soul and mind need a healthy body to prosper.
“We therefore consider it necessary to ensure that while our students are thriving and flourishing  in their academic pursuit, their physical wellbeing is not neglected, hence the organisation of this competition and other sporting activities in this school” he said.
The Director expressed the hope that the competition will go a long way in instilling the spirit of healthy competition in the students.
