Some footballers are remembered for the trophies they won. Others for the players they helped produce. Jude Agada’s legacy encompasses both.

Born in 1965, Agada began playing football at an early age. As captain and Games Prefect of St. Joseph Secondary School, Awka-Etiti, he led the school to win the Idemili Local Government Cup in 1980 — a feat the school has yet to repeat.
