... Yeah, she is but na football age be that... , the only guys that real age can be authentic are the ones born outside Nigeria. If you know, you know.

How can that be football age?

She's been with the team since 2003... Spent most of her life in the US

somehow:


They are 3 in number
one already qualified
Are you saying another one has been cleared from the remaining 2?

.. Two will play atleast, chinney has been granted to play, however, she was granted has a naturalized player. Nneka and Elizabeth williams were denied because they have played for too long for the us national team. The problem is, you can only have one naturalized player on your team. So elizabeth williams and nneka ogumike are appealing to court of abritation, siting development of female basketball in Nigeria. Chinney will play, however, she is apealing being regarded as naturalized pkayer as against being a "national".

So Precious Achiuwa is using football age too?
Hakeem Olajuwon also used football age?

somehow:

.. Yes... She did..

How I wish we could convince Arike Ogunbowale to play for us, her addition would make a big difference..

.....lmao,if you know, you know, that is what i will tell you. Btw, i played basketball, a particular player on this squad(d'tigress) is my coach daughter. It is not even you that will give your self the age, it is the coach.. I am not speaking on this anymore. Spead and light.

somehow:

.. Okay...

In other words, you are saying you have proof that Aisha is using football age?
Somebody that's 35...

She got married like 2 years ago and changed her surname from Mohammed to Balarabe...

her stock is rising so i doubt she would look our side especially with our NBBF in shamble... who want such a mess

You are right sha. She has a better prospect of winning laurels on a big stage with the US team than with our ladies..

... Arike is a good shooter,been following her since her college days, she would have been a good addition to the Nigerian team, however, i dont think she wants to play for us at all, as no interest came from her or her camp whatsoever. We will miss Evelyn Akhator..

Any reason why Akhator was dropped?

Famocious:

... To be honest, i do not know,i have a feeling it is due to injury, because, i never saw her in any of the camps they had recently.

somehow:
That Grinder is tall

Would you pick him as our starting Point guard ?

It’s sad that the time was too short for CAS to hear the Ogwumike sisters’ appeals..
But I hope they’ll be cleared in time for September’s Women’s Afrobasket.
