    Kabiru Baleria, Golden Eaglets' assistant coach, has gone back to school to update his knowledge of the game. The former El-Kanemi Warriors' attacker who was on the coaching staff of league champions, Kano Pillars, is presently undergoing the
    Confederation of African Football (CAF) Grade C-License course at the NFF/ FIFA Goal Project in Abuja.

    Participants at the
    two- week course are to be taken through theory and practical sessions under some notable Nigerian coaches including former Super Eagles manager, Shaibu Amodu and former NFF's Technical Adviser, Coach Kashimawo Laloko amongst others.

    "Coaching is a continuous process," said Baleria."The first day introductory has been very interesting as we received encouragement from top Nigerian coaches."
    CAF recently requested that national team coaches from its affiliated federations to acquire its coaching badges in order to be in tune with the dynamics of the game on the continent.

    Meanwhile there was a mild drama at Golden Eaglets training session on Monday as some potential teenagers fell like pack of cards. With players still coming in droves, the coaching crew was forced to give time for more trials but it all turned out to be a ruse.

    Gabriel Adewale who is attached with Dynamics FC in Ekiti said the training regimen is not a child's play, adding that the standard he met on ground is very high.

    "Messi is really trying o," Adewale gushed out as he was being helped by the medical team." Laziness is different from maximum power and I
    can see clearly now."

    Others who failed to meet up with the schedule equally admitted that they were not used to the sort of training conducted by the Eaglets technical staff.

    "Football is a practical thing and it was good that some of them were given the opportunity," said an on-looker."Fitness is part of the game and it would never be easy to play good football without match fitness."
