He further disclosed that the Academy is located at  Rumuodumaya in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area and has its training sessions at the Odumaya  Model Primary School Field.
He explained that the Zenith Future Super Eagles National Under 13/15 Football competition is being organised by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) and Youth Football Development (Catch Them Young).
It would be recalled that the tournament could not hold this year, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic that put everything on  hold.
Coach Chuku said the Rivers State Football team would not participate in the forthcoming 20th edition of the National Sports Festival (NSF) christened “Edo 2020,” scheduled to hold next month in Edo State.
“Team Rivers Football will not participate in this edition of the fiesta, due to its inability to take part in the zonal elimination for team sports which was held early this year.
