HFN will be working towards Paris 2024 Olympics - Ocheo

Chairman of the caretaker committee in charge of the Handball Federation of Nigeria (HFN), Sam Ocheo has stated that the Federation will continue to work on development programs with the propensity to improve the discipline in the coming years.

He made the statement in a chat with Brila.net after the team missed out on qualifying for the Olympics in Tokyo.

He stressed that the Federation will continue to focus on talents development and do what can be done to position the sports of Handball as one that can get back to continental relevance at the senior level and hopefully qualify for the next Olympics.

“We’re looking at it and we will keep doing what we are meant to do which is developing the talents, if I am still in office after the next election,  by 2025 I will be thinking of packing my bags but whoever will be there should be there continue to develop the game of Handball in the country and who knows by 2025 we might just be a candidate for the Olympics.”
