Customized plaques arrive
With exactly 20 days to go until the highly anticipated 2026 Sportsville Awards, preparations have reached a fever pitch. The organizers have confirmed that the customized award plaques are now ready, just as legendary former Green Eagles captain, Dr. Segun Odegbami, officially confirmed his attendance.
The plaques—finished in glittering gold with "Sportsville" professionally inscribed—perfectly mirror the prestige of the ceremony.
Frank Ilaboya, CEO of Sportsville, expressed his excitement, noting that the arrival of these honors signifies the event's total readiness for this year’s gala.
“It gives me joy that 20 days ahead, the plaques are ready, looking radiantly colourful.
“As usual, the plaques are customized and produced only for the Sportsville Awards Ceremony. You cannot find these plaques anywhere else.
“We feel the best way to honour and celebrate our distinguished awardees is to give them something they can boldly display in their shelves,” Mr Ilaboya added.

In a related development, former Green Eagles skipper, Dr Olusegun Odegbami, the proprietor of the wave making Eagle 7 103FM, has confirmed his attendance for the 28th March ceremony.
“I have just received my invitation for the ceremony and I can assure you I will be there,” he said.
“This is a laudable programme that deserves the support of all sports lovers. This year will be my third appearance at the event and I dare say it’s getting better year after year.”
Similarly, Ambassador Fanny Amun, fondly known as the transformer of talents after his historic U-17 World Cup in Japan 1993, has also confirmed he would part of the ceremony.
He said: “It is always a big honour to be part of your iconic programme that has made me very proud.”
As the March 28th date draws near, the organizers have intensified preparations to make the event, to be chaired by Dr Larry Izamoje, a memorable one.
