Brenner Sport Club Limited, Isolo, a subsidiary of Brenner Sport Club,
Germany took recently took delivery of football kits such as boots, trainers,
training bibs, shin guards, long hoses and jerseys for all the age groups in
the club.

implements so, it is our own little way to encourage them to put in their best
so as to play the game without any difficulty.”

“This presentation is a boost to the morale of both players and Management of
Brenner Sport Club. We thank our benefactor for investing heavily in our
players. We are committed to ensuring they have the required training that
would enable them compete internationally in the near future.”

ranging from U8, U13, U15, U17, U18, U19 to U23 players respectively.
In his vote of thanks, the Club’s Secretary, Rasheed Itebalume, called
on well-meaning Nigerians to support the club with kits and other logistics so
as to help in the management of the promising players who would in the
not-too-distant future represent the country in the international scene.
“Football has come to stay in this country and its future is brighter
than ever. Local football needs to be developed and the players would do with
some encouragement. We are grateful to Mr. Phippen for his tremendous support
and goodwill. We appeal to other football-loving Nigerians to follow suit. We
have all it takes to produce world-class players,” he stated.
