Flag Football League Plan Big For 2024 Edition
Participating teams are gearing up for this year’s edition of the Showtime Flag Football Bowl Series.
The 2024 edition of the competition will kick-off at the Meadows Hall, Lagos on September 6.
According to the organisers a total of N20m has been set aside as price monies for this edition.
The League Commissioner, Adebari Adejumo stated that the winner of the tournament will go home with N6 million, the first runner-up N4 million and the third place team will receive the sum of N2.5 million while the remaining cash price would be shared between the other nine teams.
Adejumo said this edition is going to be bigger and more exciting as the organisers plan to create something that hasn’t been done before in Nigeria and Africa, stressing that a more pragmatic developmental approach to bond with the community and the general welfare of the players is being addressed.
The Commissioner added that the game has moved from being a mini-professional to a full-fledged professional with the 2027 Olympic Games a target for the organisers.
According to the CEO of ShowTime Bowl, Manal Nassar, “We’ve created a turf of international standard and an ambience of great competition for the players and the fans,” adding that spectators would have the opportunity of patronising a Food Court to make the championship most memorable for the fans.
“The ShowTime Series is always about the community, the culture of the players and the team owners to feel more like a family and to foster community engagement, more than the flag football,” Nassar submitted.
The teams that will be participating in the competition are; Warriors Flag Football, Outlaws Athletics, Spartans FC, Panthers sport, Lagos Raptors, Off-Szn Athletics, Lagos Rebels, LA Knights, Titans Athletics, Lagos Mavericks, Wolverines and Lagos Hawks.
