Sam Leigh, Nigerian Community Leeds (NCL) and organiser of the African Cup of Nations tournament in Leeds last month, is such a keen football fan that he signed up to immediately to Back the England 2018 bid at www.england2018bid.com. 

He was delighted to learn that by backing the bid he had won a place with the England 2018 team to deliver the England bid to FIFA in Zurich on May 14th and flew over with the FA team.  Photo shows Sam with a copy of the England bid book (Sam is on the left holding the book with his friend Patrick-Spencer Salami).

NCL exists to support members of the public who are Nigerian by birth or descent or marriage or naturalisation or adoption in or around Leeds of all ages & enable them to reach their full potential while contributing to health & socio-economic wellbeing in the City.  www.nigerialeeds.org
