THE Nigeria Football Federation is on the lookout for a new coach to handle the beach soccer national team, the Supersand Eagles, and has requested for applications from suitably qualified candidates for the vacant position.
The public notice for the position is on the NFF’s website and specifies for candidates to have attended at least one beach soccer refresher course organised by the federation, be conversant with, and abreast of, the ever-changing rules and dynamics of the game and possess at least a CAF C Coaching License.
The NFF added that a candidate must also have been involved in beach soccer activities in the last three years to be considered, while playing experience locally and internationally could prove to be an added advantage.
Applications will close at midnight of Friday, with a successful candidate to be named in a matter of days, as the Supersand Eagles get set for a two-leg Beach Soccer Africa Cup of Nations qualifying fixture against their counterparts from Mauritania, the body explained.
The Supersand Eagles were one of the top teams in Africa and had attended multiple FIFA Beach Soccer World Cups before they were disbanded by the NFF about two years ago.
The NFF is now trying to form a new beach soccer national team.
