The MTC Namibia Premier League (NPL) on Saturday held its board of governors (BOG) annual congress, at which it was decided to do away with double-header fixtures for the 2018/19 season.
The meeting, which took place at the Safari Hotel in Windhoek and was attended by all 16 members, made several other resolutions, including the endorsement of its new members.
“The congress welcomed and, by the same token, ratified the three new entrants to the Namibia Premier League, which are Julinho Sporting Football Club, Young Brazilians Football Club and the Military School / Okahandja United Football Club,” a statement issued by the NPL reads.
The congress congratulated the three clubs on their promotion to the top league in the country and granted them full membership.
It approved the audited annual financial statements of the 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 football seasons and the budget for the 2018/2019 football season.
The congress approved that the 2018/2019 football season of the MTC Premiership will start on the weekend of 9 and 10 November.
It was also decided that an extraordinary congress be convened in January 2019 for the NPL to consider and endorse the appointment of auditors in accordance with the NPL constitution.
The congress welcomed and approved the new Top 8 additional competition. The sponsorship agreement for the new competition will be announced on 15 November.
The BoG endorsed Kadhila Amoomo, a legal practitioner, as the league’s prosecutor in accordance with Article 56.1 of the NPL constitution.
The secretariat will refer the Young Chief FC against Young African FC matter to the prosecutor for investigation and possible action.
“The Namibia Premier League expresses gratitude and appreciation towards MTC and FNB for their uncompromising support we received from them during the past season.
“It is this commitment during our tough economic conditions that further inspire us all in NPL to reach for the stars and hopefully deliver breakthrough outcomes,” said NPL chairman Patrick Kauta.
