The NSL announces the loss of James Uko, 19, who died suddenly on June 9. That was a day before he was to enter the NSL draft. Uko was one of the best footballers in the area and had just attended trials at Los Angeles Galaxy. Uko arrived the country barely three months before from Kumba, Cameroon. Uko is with FIFA's President Sepp Blatter in the picture above.

for an Award
Do you know a player special
who has made a difference for the better in ''Defense'' or "Goalkeeping" or conducted
himself as the "Most Sportsmanlike Player of the Year"? Perhaps you were touched by their skills,
their style, or their passion and caring for people, or respect to others, team
mates, Coaches, Field Officials or League Officials? Nominate them (or
even yourself, because you should give yourself a pat on the back when you
deserve it!), and let them know that they have made a difference for the better
in the League and in your heart.

MSSC completed a blockbuster trade by acquiring master of central defense whom I call “Christian Chukwu of NSL”,Ngo Neshang from Vasco da Gama in exchange for MSSC 2009 1st round supplemental Draft pick and striker Daniel Olawenruju. This trade will help MSSC solidify her midfield and maybe help her get a win this Sunday.
On the other hand Vasco acquired Mr Tambe Ayuk from Enyimba for undisclosed deal; I hope this is not another mysterious sealed envelope deal. Tambe may be a replacement for Ngo’s former role in Vasco. Tambe is a good defender whom Enyimba drafted last season but never played a single game for Enyimba. They have been a big question mark on his availability this season. Questions like, will his busy schedules allow him to play this time? Can he play the kind of defensive role that Vasco is looking for? Does he still have those defensive claws that made Enyimba go for him last season? These are known questions with unknown answers. Only time will tell.
Other players movements are, Johny Sessay moved from Raccah Rovers to Enyimba; John Sukue moved from Rangers to MSSC; Wale a.k.a "Bimore" from MSSC to Eastern United; Kissima moved from Young Blood to MSSC; Don moved from Inter Nationale to Vasco; "Chicken" moved from Vasco to Enyimba.
