The 2025-2026 Nigeria National League (NNL) Super Four tournament will kick off on Monday, May 4, 2026, at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, Ogun State, with all four participating teams, Sporting Lagos, Inter Lagos, Doma United, and Ranchers Bees already securing promotion to next season’s Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL).
Action gets underway with a mouthwatering opener as Sporting Lagos take on Ranchers Bees at 2pm, before Doma United Square off against Inter Lagos at 4pm.
The tournament, which will produce the overall league champions, will see the four teams battle for the ₦10 million winner’s prize, while each club is guaranteed ₦2 million as participation fees.
Speaking ahead of the competition, CEO of Toptier Sports Management Limited, Chichi Nwoko, assured that all necessary arrangements have been put in place to ensure a hitch-free and memorable tournament.
“We have worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that all modalities are in place for a superb outing. From logistics to matchday operations, the goal is to deliver a tournament that reflects the growing standards of the league,” she said.
In a bid to maintain high professional standards, organisers have also made it mandatory for all clubs to present their head coach and one player for both pre-match and post-match press conferences throughout the competition.
With promotion already secured, the focus now shifts to pride, prestige, and momentum heading into life in the NPFL.
Sporting Lagos and Inter Lagos will be keen to fly the flag of the commercial capital, while Doma United and the traditional northern side, Ranchers Bees, owned by Super Eagles striker Umar Sadiq, will be equally determined to emerge champions.
As the curtain rises in Ikenne, the big question lingers, where will the pendulum swing? Will Lagos, with its two formidable sides, seize the moment, or will it tilt elsewhere with seasoned contenders like Ranchers Bees firmly in the mix?
