Parallex Bank has awarded ₦1 million each to 10 exceptional athletes from Lagos State who participated in the 2025 National Youth Games held in Asaba, totaling ₦10 million in rewards. This initiative aims to recognize and support the achievements of young athletes in the region.

Since 2013, Uganda's women youth football has seen significant growth due to targeted investment, partnerships, and leadership, particularly under Fufa president Moses Magogo. The progress is attributed not only to Fufa but also to contributions from Fifa, Caf, and the Uganda Secondary Schools Sports Association (USSSA), marking a shift of the sport from the margins to the mainstream.
