Alongside the NPFL, the Women’s Super League, Nationwide First Division League, and Regional Second and Third Divisions are all preparing to launch, creating excitement at every level of Namibian football.

Women’s Super League
The Women’s Super League will also kick off, offering a platform for Namibia’s top female football talent. The league has grown steadily and promises to be one of the most competitive yet, with clubs from across the country vying for the national title.
Nationwide First Division and Regional Leagues
The Nationwide First Division League, along with the Regional Second and Third Divisions, will also start, ensuring football is played at all levels across the country. These leagues are crucial in developing young talent and giving smaller clubs a chance to progress through Namibia’s football pyramid.
Football Returns Despite Challenges
The simultaneous start of the NPFL, Women’s Super League, and other divisions marks a unified return for Namibian football. However, the delayed start raises concerns about the long-term stability of the game in Namibia, with sponsorship issues yet to be resolved. Clubs have expressed frustration, and there is pressure on the Namibia Football Association (NFA) to secure deals with potential sponsors like Debmarine Namibia and Namibia Breweries.
Until these sponsorship matters are settled and a final start date confirmed, the future of Namibian football remains uncertain. Fans, players, and clubs are eagerly awaiting the return of competitive football, hoping the sport will soon reclaim its place across the country.
