BAYELSA TO HOST NWFL SUPER SIX PLAYOFF
Bayelsa State will host the Nigeria Women Football League Super Six tournament.
The tournament will run from 18th to 26th May, 2024.
All the matches will be played at the Samson Siasia Stadium, Yenagoa.
“On behalf of the board and management of the NWFL, let me congratulate Bayelsa State for being selected as the hosts for the NWFL Premiership Super Six,” the NWFL chairman Nkechi Obi stated.
“We hope this opportunity to host a great Super Six will further boost women’s football in Bayelsa and raise the profile of the sport in Nigeria.”
“This will be the first time that the NWFL Premiership playoff tournament will be hosted by Bayelsa State. Yenagoa is also the home ground of Bayelsa Queens, who had a memorable 2022 NWFL Premiership campaign where they famously won the domestic title, WAFU-B playoff and eventually finished third at the 2022 CAF Women’s Champions League held in Morocco.
The playoff will be played in a round-robin format, with each participating team playing five matches in the race for the coveted title.
The winner will represent Nigeria in the CAF Women Champions League next season.
