A lot has changed since I did my final project in 1996 at the Federal Polytechnic Nekede. It was my first experience to research on Sport Marketing in Nigeria. I had to travel from state to state engaging football personalities and administrators. Was I disappointed? I could hardly find any meaningful information, only bits and tits from my oral interview with some renowned football administrators who knew next to nothing about football business.
Today, you do not have to undertake such strenuous expeditions. What you may need to do is to log on to Google search engine on the Internet and you may likely come across "CheerOnNigeria" blog articles. It was my experience in 1996 that actually drove me to start this blog in 2009.
As it is today, scholars and business people needing market information and business intelligence regarding Nigeria football industry usually rely on CheerOnNigeria blog....from sponsorship to merchandising, career opportunities, Football trials opportunities, transfermarket operations, football business ideas, marketing and innovations...
And our company, GreenHunters Sports International has organized several football business conferences, football educational training programs, Sport marketing and player's Intermediary short courses.based on inquiries and demands that spring out of our blog post.
We have helped many university scholars and researcher complete their project work, we've gone to the grassroots to help primary and secondary schools organize successful Inter house sports competition following several resources they found in our blog post. We have helped Young and aspiring footballers sign their first contract and start off their professional careers.
There's a lot of valuable football business, marketing and management resources that will enrich your knowledge of the football industry in Nigeria. I encourage you to take a tour of the blog, you will be glad you did.
