The 2020 Prudent Energy Handball League transfer window will officially close on 15th October, 2020. According to Haruna Maigidansanma, Secretary General of Handball Federation of Nigeria (HFN) no transfer deal will be entertained during the league championship.
Maigidansanma stated that HFN will send formal letters of reminder to all participating teams.
The statement obtained by www.aclsports.com reads, “As we prepare ahead for the 2020 Prudent Energy Handball Premier League, please note that deadline for the TRANSFER of players cannot be later than 15th October, 2020. As stated in the Invitation Letter “NO TRANSFER DEAL WILL BE ENTERTAINED DURING THE LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP” henceforth.
“You are therefore kindly requested to make your contact with the HFN Secretariat or through handbanigeria@yahoo.co.uk as the case may be, a formal reminder letter would be sent out to all the participating TEAMS in this regard”.
www.aclsports.com gathered that few teams registered players during the 2018 and 2019 campaign as the federation is doing everything possible to be at par with established leagues in the world.
The 2020 Prudent Energy Handball Premier League will tentatively hold in Abuja in from 23rd October to 7th November, 2020.
There will be no first or second phase this year as the league would be held on consolidated basis as a result of the remaining timeline for handball in the end of the year.
All the teams will play round-robin games amongst themselves and the winners will emerge as the 2020 Prudent Energy Handball Premier League Champions in the men and women category respectively.
