Scouting in the game of football, can be described as the meticulous process of identifying players who possess the innate skills and attributes needed to excel on the pitch. These individuals, often hidden from the limelight, harbor the potential to become the stars of tomorrow.

Which explains why C2E Sports Management in collaboration with Sporting Lagos Football Club  saw the need to organise a grade A scouting program in the city of Aba, aimed at discovering young and budding football talents in the city and it's environs.

Speaking after the successful scouting program, the head of recruitment of Sporting Lagos Football Club Mr Ayobami Animasahun expressed his views on the program " it's been a fantastic two day  event, I came into the city with an expectation of finding one or two talents, but I must tell you my expectations has been surpassed, I have been able to discover lots of interesting talents. I must say i like the fighting spirit of the boys, it's a common thing about football players from this city, they have this natural tendency to fight tooth and nail to achieve their aim, and I think it is something which has been naturally imbibed in them and that could also explain  also explain the dominance and success of Enyimba FC which happens to be the top flight football team based in the city".

Mr Animasahun also had a few words for the organizer of the program Mr Membis Vitus of C2E Sports. He described him as an "angel" who has taken it upon himself to see to the growth and development of football in Aba and Nigeria in general.

The Chief Scout of C2E Sports Management Mr Membis Vitus also expressed his satisfaction on the just concluded program. "I think i can comfortably say that am satisfied with the program, the teams involved displayed some top quality football and of course the talents here did not fail to leave up to expectations".

The scouting program which is  expected to be a regular event had in participation 12 quality football academies, including Top level Football Academy which is  managed by Mr Membis Vitus.
