The National Sports Authority (NSA) would like to congratulate Bo Rangers Football Club and Mogbwemo Queens for winning the Sierra Leone Men’s Premier League and the Sierra Leone Women’s Premier League respectively.
Both winners exhibited fortitude and good game spirits to attain the acme of excellence in the country’s top-tier football leagues. Their successes will form a significant part of the Sierra Leone football history.
Furthermore, the NSA wishes to thank all the clubs that participated in the respective elite leagues for competing peacefully and for displaying sportsmanship when it was needed.

Therefore, the NSA would like to extend thanks to both Premier League Boards for spearheading the activities of the tournaments right through to this time. They have done a remarkable job that continues to bring thousands of Sierra Leoneans together.
From the far end, the fans are worth considering for supporting their respective clubs without whom match days will be trite. Continue to support your teams.
