Dimapur, Sept 16

The Nagaland Premier League will kick off on September 21 as opposed to 18 as earlier stated. The change of dates is due to the unavailability of the DDSC stadium in Dimapur on September 18 and the management finds it important to kick off simultaneously at Mokokchung, Dimapur and Kohima so that there is no alteration in the fixture, stated a release received here.
Moreover the reason to kick off together is so that since all clubs play on a home and away basis, the scheduling for dates becomes complicated since the league is shortened to a duration of only nine weeks as compared to 18 last season, stated the statement.
However, the organizers also clarified that the level of football is going to be any lesser, as they are eager to kick off and knows the excitement of the fans as well.
There will be simultaneous opening ceremonies in the three designated venues and the time is nearing to support your local heroes on the pitch once again. Support your club and NPL because this is our league, the release added.
