Nigeria Rugby Football Federation (NRFF) is set to camp the senior men’s national team, Black Stallions, in England ahead of the next month’s Paris 2024 Olympic Games qualifiers in Mauritius.
Nigeria is pitted against Ghana, Burundi, and DR Congo with the Black Stallions targeting top three finish to earn a move to the next phase of the series, which is the Africa Cup Sevens slated for Zimbabwe.
The bulk of the selected players are expected to go into a closed camp before travelling to Mauritius for the first phase of the qualifiers. The Mauritius leg of the qualifiers will hold on June 24 and 25 with 12 countries in competition for the available four slots in the Africa Cup Sevens tourney, which holds in Zimbabwe in September.
