ScoutLyx To Pilot AI-Powered Football Analytics In NLO Cup Fixture
In another step toward integrating technology and innovation into grassroots football development in Nigeria, the NLO Cup 2026 will pilot ScoutLyx, an AI-powered football platform designed to advance player development, performance analysis, and talent discovery.
The test will take place during the North Central Zone match between Paul E FC and Bussdor United at the Area 3 Pitch in Abuja.
Through this initiative, ScoutLyx will demonstrate how it captures and presents football statistics and performance insights. Its broader objective is to help players better understand their performances while giving scouts, coaches, clubs and other football stakeholders data-driven tools for talent identification and assessment.
The pilot marks an exciting intersection of grassroots football and technological innovation, highlighting the importance of creating platforms that give emerging talents greater visibility and access to new opportunities.
By leveraging competitive fixtures in the NLO Cup, ScoutLyx aims to show how technology can complement traditional scouting methods and help build a more informed, accessible and progressive football ecosystem.
The initiative also underscores the NLO’s continued commitment to fostering innovation, development and the growth of football in Nigeria.
