Four South-west states show interest in the Tobi/Abiola Sprint and Relays Meet

The 2023 edition of the Tobi/Abiola Sprint and Relays Meet is set to be bigger than organisers initially planned as athletics clubs and schools from four states have expressed interest in participating.

It is an initiative of the world recorder holder in 100m hurdles Tobi Amusan and renowned quarter-miler Abiola Onakoya, both based in the United States.

The duo started the competition a few years ago to give budding athletes from Ogun State an opportunity to showcase their talents to be discovered and then get assistance and the support they need to take their career to the next level and if they merit it, a scholarship to study in tertiary institutions.
