February 26, in six venues in various parts of the country.
According to the LFA, the ceremony is expected to begin with a parade
and it will involve all clubs, Sub-Committees and Associations,
Affiliates and Referees before the officially opening at the
Antoinette Tubman Stadium (ATS).
The football house release issued on Wednesday says 45 Premier, First
and Second Division teams will be participating in this year’s
Championship Competition.
The 45 participating team have been placed in four categories. Those
in the Premiership Division are LPRC-Oilers, Black Star, Mighty

NPA-Anchors and Mark Professional.

The football house has added three new venues on top of the three used
last season in their bid to decentralize the game in the country.
The three venues include Nancy B. Doe Stadium in Margibi County, the
Bong Mines Sportsfield in Logan Town, and D. Tweh Sportsfield in the
Borough, New Kru Town both on Bushrod Island, Monrovia.
The rest of the venues are Antoinette Tuman Stadium (ATS), Unification
Town Sports Stadium in Margibi County and the Doris Williams Sports
Stadium in Buchanan Grand Bassa County.
The FA League, which kicks off Sunday, February 26, with only two
matches scheduled to take place at the Antoinette Tubman Stadium
(ATS), will see female champions Titoe United opening the month long
competition with Blanco.
Meanwhile current male champions LPRC-Oilers will sort things out with
Watanga FC before Oilers international match in Senegal with Jaraf in
a week’s period. |
