The chief coach of Nigeria U18 Girls team, Agboola Shittu has disclosed that his aim is to lead the squad to victory over Guadalupe on Wednesday (February 28th).

Nigeria U18 women’s handball team have landed in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, to participate at the 2024 IHF Women’s Trophy Intercontinental Phase from 28th February to 3rd March.

Shittu told www.aclsports.com that the team is in a high spirit for this campaign and that they are ready to showcase their true colours in Uzbekistan.

He said, “As African champion, I want to say that we are ready for the task ahead, though is not going to be easy because there so many favourites here.

“We are going to approach this match with 200% effort. We are going to give everything on the court; we are not going to give up.

He further said, “It is going to be difficult match, but we want to win and stay in this tournament until the end. I have told the players that we do not need to concede more goal; we want to score goals at every slightest chance and maintain our lead.

“It is a mission that has been entrusted to us by the Handball Federation of Nigeria (HFN), and we are going to try to carry it out.

“I believe in my team. Every team has what you may call frail areas, but the important thing is for the players to play for one another”.

Nigeria are in group A alongside Guadeloupe and New Caledonia.

Agboola Shittu released a final list of players consisting of 14 players who were picked from the eighteen players invited for camping.
