I signed an MOU on behalf of @OfficialMubs and @Official_UOC marking a milestone for the introduction of diploma and postgraduate diploma courses in sports education. We're thrilled to partner on this initiative, which will provide students with a comprehensive education combining academic rigor and sports expertise. By institutionalizing sports education, we aim to foster well-rounded individuals with improved discipline and a strong foundation for success.

The athletes were awarded certificates of participation, together with tokens of appreciation from the Athletes' Commission, in this milestone two-day affair. The workshop not only heightened athletes' awareness and readiness but also fostered a sense of community and support among them as they prepare themselves for their endeavors.

Dr. Rukare also addressed the issue of safeguarding in sport and urged all the athletes to take this issue seriously. The workshop has been a valuable source of information, equipping athletes with knowledge and skills necessary to deal with complexities that they may face in the course of their daily lives.
