Calabar · Cross River State

The Intentional Academy with defined Pathways.

Do you have what it takes to:

  • Become a professional footballer
  • Secure an international college or university scholarship via football
  • Build a business in football

Then MOJODA Pro Football Academy could be home.

Who we are

More than football. We raise complete players.

Our mission is to develop every young athlete into a person of character, on and off the pitch. Football teaches discipline, confidence and teamwork, and schooling stays in the starting eleven.

From a Development player's first touches to an Under 19's next step, every player follows a clear pathway with coaches who know their game.

Three pathways

Whatever happens, our graduates are covered

We define the pathways, and we work to ensure your dreams become a reality.

  1. Study & play

    University scholarship

    We prepare players, on the pitch and in the classroom, for football scholarships at colleges and universities in the United States.

  2. Play abroad

    Professional contract

    For players with the talent and the drive, we work towards professional football contracts with clubs abroad.

  3. Build a career

    Sports entrepreneurship

    Coaching, management, media and business. Players learn how the sports industry works and how to build a career in it.

Programs

Development, then the academy

Development is open to every boy and girl who wants to learn. The academy squads are Under 13, Under 16 and Under 19. Pick the group you think fits when you join; our coaches confirm it at screening.

The MOJODA Way

Four things we keep in the first team

Talent gets a player noticed. Habits keep them in the game. These are the standards every MOJODA player lives by, from Development to the Under 19s.

01

Discipline

On time, in kit, ready to work. Standards are the same for every player, every day.

02

Technique

Thousands of quality touches a week. Mastery of the ball comes before everything else.

03

Education

Football careers are short. Every player leaves with an education to fall back on.

04

Character

Respect for teammates, opponents and officials. We coach the person, not just the player.

Parents get the team sheet

  • Safeguarding-trained staff on duty from first whistle to last
  • A written progress report every term
  • A direct line to your child's coach
