This year’s President Federation Cup competition at the national level will kick off with the men’s Round of 64 matches on Wednesday and Thursday next week (1-2 May).
The defending champions, Bendel Insurance, will be starting in Abuja against Ogun State’s Stomers Sports Club.
Aside from Abuja, Kaduna, Owerri, Lafia, Awka, Enugu, Benin City, Ibadan, Asaba, Ilorin, Aba and Kano are the centres to host the 32 matches, which will then produce the candidate teams for the Round of 32.
The women’s teams, whose competition will take off at the Round of 32, will sit out next week’s attrition but will take to the battlegrounds when the men are also fighting for slots in the Round of 16.
