Obasa Games 2024 indoor games end today

The curtain of the indoor sports of the highly Obasa Games 2024 will draw to a close on Friday at the indoor sports hall of the Soccer Temple,  Agege Stadium.

The one-week competition showcased the best of chess, scrabble, table tennis, and boxing from the budding talents of both male and female U-15 and U-19 categories.

The young players locked horns with each other in their different games from the preliminary stages, culminating in the knock-out and with a grand finale today to reveal the winners.

The local organising chairman, Abdulganiu Obasa, reiterated and recognised the abundance of talent in Nigeria as the event heads into the grand finale with high expectations.

“The past four days have been a testament to the fact that Nigeria is indeed blessed with budding talents. We have seen raw and untapped talents during this event.

“The event is also laden with emotion from participants who could not qualify in each different rounds across boxing, table tennis, chess and scrabble. I witnessed participants who shed tears after losing to their opponents,” he said.

“I’m very impressed with the level of talent on display from boxing, table tennis, chess and scrabble.

“I am very excited watching the young ones putting in their very best, and I am very sure that Friday, being the final day, will be fascinating, not only for the players but also for the spectators,” he concluded.
