NWFL suspends league matches............To resume after Super Falcons finish first phase of camping

The Secretary of the Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL), Danlami Alanana says matches in the 2011/2012 Women Professional League have been suspended until further notice.

She stated this while speaking with news men in Abuja.

Alanana, said the league’s suspension was as a result of the Super Falcons’ camping programme.

The 20-club league competition, which began on March 17, was to enter its eighth week on April 21, with matches in its two groups.

The Falcons resumed their first phase of camping on April 15, ahead of preparations for upcoming fixtures.








The team’s technical crew invited 53 players to camp, for preparations ahead of the qualifiers for the eighth African Women Championship (AWC).

However, only 26 players had reported for the camp’s first training session, with a few others joining some days later.

A number of those invited were held back at their clubs, causing the Nigeria Football Association (NFA) to direct the NWFL to suspend the league.
