I'm a Nigerian and currently, I am in Ilorin Kwara state Nigeria. Ilorin thesouth local government area, we have numerous sports centers where people do go there to exercise themselves and also to compete with other local governments. Sport is one of the most common things most people like in my community and I also love watching them whenever there is a football match competition. So for today, I will be taking you around the Kwara State Stadium here in my community.
Kwara state international stadium is the best sports center in my community, it has about 26,000 capacity and is located at Taiwo road Ilorin. The stadium is mostly used for football. It has other sport activity such as a valley ball Court, handball, swimming center, gym hall, sports store, and many others.

It is the home stadium of Kwara United F.C and the ABS F.C also, it is multi-used for events, matches, and other sports activities
What facilities does Kwara international stadium have
The stadium has a basketball court where males and female do play their games at ease, also the court is used for match composition when it is being organized by the people in charge of it. Also, it is free you don't have to pay before you can play basketball.

This building is where the gym hall is located, the building is attached to the swimming pool but their gym is very nice and I went there some months ago to meet up with the instructor. But there is a fee for the gym sport.

What sports discipline is practiced most frequently in your community? Who practices it (children, youth, adult men, or women)?
The above sport discipline is practiced by both men, women, and even children, but children go there only occasionally. There is a sports school inside the stadium where they train young girls and boys how to play most of the games. For the school, you have to pay the fee, but on normal grounds, you can go there and meet the official and then you will be allowed to play any time of sport you want.
