The competition aimed to celebrate Nigeria Independence and to emphasize the importance of freedom to people is
organized by Phreestyle Sport Limited and supported by Kwara State Sports Commission.
The Brain Behind Phreestyle Sport Limited, Shogo Shodunnke told sports writers in Ilorin on Sunday that Table Tennis was added to this year's edition to give more participation to others who may not make the football team and also stressed the need for team effort in achieving greatness.
Shodunnke added that the newly established Kwara State Sports Commission under the chairmanship of Prince Bola Mogaji has provided needed support to make the event memorable just as he called on others who may want to partner with the concept.
The press conference and the draws for the events will be conducted on Monday, 27th in Ilorin, the Kwara State Capital.
KWIRS defeated their NMA counterpart to lift the maiden edition of the Independent Cup played in 2019.
