The Cross River State Sports Commissioner for Sports Development has taken a commendable step towards rejuvenating sports in the state by officially inaugurating the Pelicans and Rovers Football Club Committee, in Calabar.

Hon. Agnes Atsu said the development represents a concerted effort to rectify the decline in the state's sporting reputation and to underline the vital role of sports in our everyday lives, hence focusing on these historic football clubs, it aims to not only revive their past glory but also emphasize sports as a unifying and essential aspect of our daily existence.

The commissioner said the initiative goes beyond the scope of football; it serves as a poignant reminder of how sports can be a unifying factor in society. Sports transcend age, gender, and background, bringing people together in shared excitement and competition. 

Responding, the chairman of the committee, Augustine Ugi, stressed that by investing in the revitalization of these football clubs, the Commissioner sends a powerful message about the broader significance of sports in fostering community bonds, promoting physical health, and instilling values such as teamwork and perseverance. 

He said this endeavor is not just about correcting the past but also about redefining how we perceive and integrate sports into ones daily lives, recognizing it as a unifying force that enriches our collective experience, while promising to deliver on their parts to promote sporting activities in the state.
