The 2023/24 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) draw ceremony, which was originally scheduled for August 17th, has been postponed to August 24th.
The postponement is at the request of the club owners, who suggested that the draw and the annual general meeting (AGM) should be held on the same day.
The AGM is a meeting of all the clubs in the NPFL to discuss important matters, such as the league’s rules and regulations, the financial situation of the league, and the appointment of the league’s officials.
The draw ceremony is the event where the teams are randomly drawn into groups for the upcoming season.
The postponement of the draw ceremony is a minor inconvenience, but it is ultimately in the best interests of the NPFL.
By holding the draw and the AGM on the same day, the club owners will be able to discuss important matters and get the season off to a good start.
The new date for the draw ceremony is August 24th, 2023.
The NPFL is excited to get the 2023/24 season underway. The league has been in a state of flux in recent years, but it is now on a stable footing. The postponement of the draw ceremony is a minor setback, but it will not derail the league’s plans for a successful season.
