Founder's Story
From Local Courts to Global Impact
Sadiq Tswako began his tennis journey at age ten in Abuja, Nigeria. His exceptional dedication and natural talent propelled him from local competitions to representing Nigeria in the prestigious Africa Junior Championship. His outstanding achievements earned him a scholarship to Triangle Tennis Academy in North Carolina, followed by collegiate tennis at ASA College in New York, where he excelled both athletically and academically.
Through the Tswako Foundation, Sadiq is committed to creating transformative opportunities for young athletes across Nigeria. The foundation provides essential equipment, organizes high-quality competitions, and builds critical life skills through sports—ensuring that the next generation of athletes has access to the resources and support he once lacked.
