O3 Athletics Foundation

O3 Athletics Foundation is a non-governmental organization that provides a platform for young Nigerian athletes to build a career in athletics. We are a team of coaches, trainers, physiotherapists, psychologists and project managers, working together to continuously produce World and Olympics champions by leveraging on a structured grassroots scouting network, dedicated nurturing, and early exposure to international competitions.

We run an Academy that trains athletes specifically in track events and we oversee the following disciplines; 100M, 200M, 400M, 100/110M Hurdles, 400M Hurdles, 800M, 1500M, Long Jump, Triple Jump and the relay races.

We are based in Lagos and we have zonal offices in each of the five (5) other geopolitical zones in Nigeria. Each zone is headed by a Zonal Coordinator who recruits his/her own technical team and oversees the academy.

O3 Athletics Foundation is able to fund programs through cash and equipment donation from individuals, and through partnership with corporate organizations. We are open to discussing different options for partnership which can lead to ongoing and valuable relationships.

O3 Athletics Foundation is committed to adhering to high standards of financial management, governance and transparency and we have put strong reporting systems in place, to meet accountability requirements.

This is a wonderful initiative coming at a time our athletes federation has failed on so many grounds. I think partnering with some companies and some state government like lagos state will definitely bring out something without any doubt.
However they need to be careful of those hawks in public sector who are ready to prey on any given opportunity i.e initiative like this one. All they want is money....money...then waste or kill those talents out there.
God bless O3 Athletics Foundation, more grace.

i think this shows why we need to push for Athletics to be trained and encouraged properly.

The Inter-School Athletics Championship (ISAC) is an annual Under-17 athletics competition that is organized to regularly churn out talents that would represent Nigeria in future international competitions. It will be the biggest school sports event ever organized anywhere in Nigeria and is expected to attract an estimated 10, 000 people.
​
This competition is organized for both government and private Secondary Schools in Lagos State and it holds at the end of the third term, to allow students focus on academics during the academic year and give them enough preparation time after examination. Exceptional students would be drafted into the O3 Academy.

The ISAC features five (5) athletics discipline; 100M, 100/110M hurdles, 200M, 400M & Long Jump. Ten (10) finals would be held on the 2nd day i.e. 5 male events & 5 female events and outstanding silver medalists would be selected to join the gold medalists for the 1-week training camp in Delta State.

From 2018, gold medalists would be given scholarship to selected Federal Universities.
