All roads lead to the National Stadium, Surulere, Lagos, the venue of the Zenith Bank-sponsored Nigeria Women’s Basketball Premier League Final 8, to determine the eventual champion for the season.
The qualifying phase matches were played simultaneously in the Atlantic and Savannah Conferences, held in Enugu and Abuja, respectively.
First Bank led the Atlantic Conference qualifiers, joined by MFM, Dolphins, and Bayelsa Whales.
Meanwhile, Nigeria Customs, as the leaders in the Savannah Conference, are leading the other teams: Titans, Royal Aces, and Air Warriors to Lagos.
Speaking on the Final 8 championship, which will be held from October 10-15, 2024, at the Indoor Hall of the National Stadium, the President of the Nigeria Basketball Federation, Engineer Ahmadu Musa Kida, restated the readiness of the NBBF to organize an exciting and highly competitive Final 8 tournament that would eventually produce a worthy Nigerian champion.
He also commended the contributions of Zenith Bank to the development of the game in Nigeria.
"The Final Eight is a testament to Zenith Bank's commitment to basketball and the development of the girl child.
"We commend them for standing alongside the NBBF to grow the game of basketball.
The global achievements of D'Tigress can only show how Zenith Bank's commitment has helped transform the game in Nigeria and Africa as a continent," Kida stated.
