In an effort to showcase Nigerian football talents to the global market, the AMAPRO Football Championship has signed a collaboration agreement with EyeBall, a renowned company specialising in technology and performance data.
Shogo Shodunnke, the man behind the AMAPRO tournament, announced the landmark partnership on Tuesday.
According to Shodunnke, this collaboration is essential as both organizations share a common goal: to provide visibility for young football talents and facilitate their development. He emphasized that EyeBall’s expertise in harnessing talent through emerging technologies makes the AMAPRO Football Championship an ideal platform for highlighting untapped Nigerian talents and enhancing youth football.
“As you know, the AMAPRO Football Championship aims to bridge the gap between professional and amateur footballers by offering young talents a platform to accelerate their progression,” explained Shodunnke. “Partnering with a prestigious organisation like EyeBall will allow us to achieve this objective in several ways.”
He continued, “Many clubs participating in the AMAPRO tournament are seeking global visibility, and their players are eager for a platform to showcase their skills and improve their game to attract larger opportunities. We are confident that this partnership will yield positive results for both parties.”
EyeBall is a world-renowned digital platform for youth football, connecting professional and amateur football communities through innovative technologies. It specialises in creating a reliable database for players, analyzing their performance for potential scouts, and serving as a hub for players and coaches to enhance their skills and track their progress.
The 2025 AMAPRO Football Championship is scheduled to take place from July 7 to 13 in Ilorin, Kwara State. Last year’s edition saw Abraysports FC claim victory over NPFL All Stars in the final.
