NA-ROYAL FOOTBALL ACADEMY DAZZLE AT GLOBAL PATHWAY SCOUTING PROGRAMME

NA-ROYAL Football Academy are making their mark at the second edition of the Global Pathway Scouting Programme, currently underway at the Rashidi Yekini Mainbowl in Ilorin. The lads thrashed Dollyp Football Academy by three goals to one on day one, and traded tackles with Agbelle Sporting Academy in a tense encounter which ended in a one-all draw earlier today.

The scouting programme, which kicked off on 13th April 2026, has drawn young talents and top academies from across the country. NA-ROYAL Football Academy arrived with a strong contingent of players, coaches, and technical staff, all eager to showcase the skill, discipline, and tactical growth the academy has been building over the past year.

Sessions so far have included fitness tests, technical drills, and competitive match play under the watchful eyes of local and international scouts, with Super Eagles Assistant Coach & former Remo Stars Technical Adviser, Coach Daniel Ogunmodede also on ground to monitor proceedings. Some NA-ROYAL players have already caught attention with their sharp passing, composure under pressure, and attacking flair.

Team captain and central defender Ahmed Alasa shared his excitement: “We’ve been working for this moment. Every training session back home was for chances like this. I’m just focused on playing my game and helping the team win.”

The Sporting Director, Alhaji Funsho Muhammed, praised the organizers for the professional setup, noting that exposure to high-level scouting is crucial for grassroots development.

NA-ROYAL’s head coach, Ahmed Bolaji, described the programme as “a vital pathway for our boys to transition from potential to opportunity.” He added that beyond scouting, the event is helping players learn professionalism, teamwork, and the demands of top-tier football.

The Global Pathway Scouting Programme continues throughout the week, with more matches and assessments lined up. For NA-ROYAL Football Academy, the goal is clear: impress the scouts, gain valuable experience, and open doors for their players to progress to national and international stages.
