Lagos, Nigeria – The Nigeria Catchball Federation (NCF) has entered into a landmark partnership with Inside Success Nigeria (ISN) to leverage the sport of Catchball as a powerful tool for youth and women empowerment across the country.
The partnership was formalized during a courtesy visit by the President and CEO of NCF, Engr. Bola Babarinde, to ISN’s headquarters in Lekki, Lagos. He was warmly received by the CEO of ISN, Mr. David Sonowo, and the Director of Operations, Ms. Sola Agboola.
Speaking on the collaboration, Mr. Sonowo expressed his excitement:
“At Inside Success Nigeria, we are committed to humanitarian and empowerment projects that create lasting impact. Catchball is an innovative and inclusive sport that aligns perfectly with our mission. We are proud to partner with the Nigeria Catchball Federation to touch the lives of young Nigerians, especially women, through sports.”
As part of the partnership, ISN will establish a Catchball club, wholly owned by the organization, with its name to be unveiled in the coming weeks. This initiative will serve as a hub for talent development and community engagement.

“This partnership is a win-win for both organizations. Catchball is more than just a sport; it is a platform for empowerment, social inclusion, and leadership development. Through ISN’s extensive humanitarian network, we will be able to reach young girls and women from different backgrounds, helping them build confidence and life skills that transcend the playing field.”
The partnership will feature joint programmes aimed at:
