Basseterre, St. Kitts, May 28th, 2025-The Ministry of Sports, under the leadership of the Honourable Samal Duggins, is pleased to invite the general public, football fans, and members of the media to attend a landmark International Friendly Football Match between SKN Select and YAFA Nigeria, to be held this Friday, May 30, 2025, at the Samuel Williams Sporting Complex in Verchilds. Kick-off is set for 7:30 PM, and admission is free.
This exciting encounter marks the continuation of a celebration of cultural and economic collaboration between St. Kitts and Nevis and Nigeria, under the theme: “Two Nations, One Rhythm: Bridging Cultures, Building Futures.”
The football match is more than a sporting event. It represents a deeper investment in community development, the decentralization of opportunity, and the promotion of sports diplomacy as a tool for regional and international unity.
“This game is part of our commitment to bring opportunities to the people where they live, whether in the capital or the countryside,” said Minister Duggins. “It’s about showing that rural communities are ready for the world stage.”
The Minister is encouraging the entire football fraternity, youth organizations, community leaders, and the media to attend and help spotlight this momentous occasion.
