Pro Route League Launches in Kwara to Showcase Young Football Talent
According to a news report from Daily Trust, the Pro Route League (PRL), a private football league, has been established in Kwara State.
Founded by NonPareil Sports Limited, the league aims to provide young football players with opportunities similar to those available to their counterparts in Europe. Organiser Ibrahim Zubair stated that the league will feature 10 carefully selected football clubs and academies from the region, all sharing the vision of promoting and harnessing young talents.
The 10 teams will compete in a standard league format, playing home and away matches. The inaugural season is set to commence on 26th July at the Main-Bowl of the Kwara State Stadium Complex in Ilorin, with matches scheduled for weekends (Saturdays and Sundays).
Zubair also noted that all matches will be recorded, with highlights and statistics extracted for individual players.
“These statistics will also be available on a reputable global scouting platform.
“This way, we get to market our talents to the world and create the exposure for these talents. This will always be the primary focus of the PRL” Zubair said.
He said the games are scheduled to be played at two (2) venues, the Main-Bowl of the Kwara State Stadium Complex, Ilorin and Kwara Football Academy (KFA) pitch.
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Unicorns Football Club, Victor Awoniyi who endorsed the league donated N1m to support the initiative.
Awoniyi said he will always support any programme or initiative that will give opportunities to the younger generation to succeed.
