It actually takes a long-term plan to nurture a generation of professional athletes to world-class, Olympic standard. For gymnastics you also need a lot of equipment that needs constant maintenance and upgrading. Plus, you have to start training when youre about 8 years old, for several hours a week, to build the type of physique and flexibility needed. Not to mention the kind of physiotherapists, nutritionists and sport-specialised doctors you would need to employ. Millions of naira need to be poured in per child, every year

To start off with, we would be better off with sports that require less equipment, like running/football before we start complicating things. And we need to build a national interest and culture around sports

The budget doesnt even care for arts/sports right now. This is the same reason we dont have world class ballet dancers (though our traditional dance more than makes up for that)
You are right... You and I know that our major problem is our government. This same government removed PHE “Physical & Health Education” from the curriculum of students in both primary and secondary schools for no reason. There are no sporting curses or subjects in Schools. When we have proper sensitization then we can breed the few ones that we’ve. “Catch them young” we still have zealous and promising youths outta there.

Simone Biles is the GOAT...

Goes to show that HARD WORK and PESERVERANCE pays. The lady started early as a gymnast, then when she was a teenager, she moved hundreds of miles away from her family to another part of the country to settle and train even more to be the best at her field.

Today, she is reaping the fruits of her sacrifices.
Sorry to burst your bubble.
Simona biles is on a banned drug called ADHA.

She is one of the reason why the Russians are calling her and her country cheats.

Subjected to opinion.
I would not hail her .
My ten pence

I know that exactly. There's no billionaire graduate person.
I lived overseas for a short while. I see how their system works. They have government grants.
All those, my father died, I didn't go to school... I was depressed and started playing basketball, council house people.
They first depend on government aid to stay alive. Then go into sports to chase their depression away.
Some then get sponsors.... and maybe their life becomes better.
To them, i wish the best.
But for how many years can a human being continue sumersaulting? One must get a good job and settle down.
Lol ..seems you have a personal beef for the sport

Anything you are good in ..Make sure you do your best in it

So which sport do you like?

cool

Arianne, rising from a ugly background as the daughter of a drug-addicted mother and an equally drug-addicted/absentee father, living in and out of foster homes, to growing into Olympic stardom and achieving an elite status as the most successful gymnast in the history of the sport is no mean feat!

22 years of age and still counting.

Go girl!!!

This not so pleasant background is her true driving force!

Yes and replaced it with "Health and Social studies" smh

Well there is still opportunity to engage in sport but it's more of a private endeavour

But if we could take hold of one sport and own it like the Kenyans and Ethiopians it would be good
