The Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) has issued a firm warning to clubs that have not yet completed their digital registration and club licensing procedures ahead of the new Premiership season. The league emphasized that non-compliant teams risk sanctions, including possible relegation.
With the November 22 deadline approaching, the NWFL confirmed that Castmog Ladies, Osun Babes, and Naija Ratels are among the clubs still lagging in meeting the mandatory digital documentation and licensing requirements. All processes are now conducted through the league’s digital registration portal to ensure transparency and efficiency, as part of efforts to professionalize women’s football in Nigeria.
NWFL Chief Operating Officer Modupe Shabi urged the remaining clubs to complete their submissions promptly, reaffirming that the deadline will not be extended. “The digital registration and licensing process is designed to ensure that every club meets the minimum professional standards required to compete,” Shabi said.
“We expect full compliance before the November 22 deadline. Any club that fails to meet these financial and administrative obligations will face the consequences outlined in our regulations. Our commitment is to run a credible, properly structured league.”
The NWFL reiterated its determination to enforce all regulatory provisions to guarantee a smooth start to the new season and to uphold the integrity of the competition.
