Editorial
The NWFL's decision to increase the prize money for the Premiership Super 6 is a commendable step towards elevating women's football in Nigeria. The significant rise in financial support for even the bottom three teams shows an understanding of the need for sustainability and development across all levels of competition. By ensuring that all clubs leave the tournament with tangible rewards, the league is fostering a spirit of growth and investment in women’s football.
We believe that this commitment to financial inclusivity will inspire more clubs to invest in their women's teams, knowing that there is substantial backing and reward for their efforts. The stakes are even higher now, with a ticket to the CAF Women’s Champions League and potential FIFA Women’s Club World Championship participation on the line.
