The Lagos State Archery in Schools Sports Development Programme continued its statewide rollout on Wednesday with its fifth activation at Tolu Schools Complex in Ajegunle, as organisers intensified efforts to expand grassroots participation in the sport across Lagos.
The initiative, organised by the Lagos State Archery Association (LSAA) through the Lagos State School Sports Association (LSSSA) and powered by the Zen Archery Sports Foundation, moved to Babs Fafunwa Millennium School, Ojodu Berger, on Thursday for the sixth activation in the series.
Organisers said the programme has already introduced archery to more than 500 students across four days of activities in different parts of the state, while about 80 sports masters have also received training.
The project aims to introduce students and teachers to archery through structured, safety-focused sessions delivered in schools across Lagos.
Speaking on the expansion of the programme into Ajegunle and Ojodu Berger, the Founder of Zen Archery Sports Foundation, Emmanuel Oyeleke, described the initiative as an opportunity to expand access to competitive sports across different communities.
