Nigeria Women's Football League (NWFL) Premiership side, Heartland Queens, received their well-deserved accolades at the conclusion of the 2024 Imo State FA Cup final on Saturday, March 30th, at the Old Township Stadium in Owerri.
The team was rightfully adorned with gold medals and presented with the coveted, glittering trophy.
As the sole team to express interest and register for the 2024 Imo State FA Cup competition, the Cup holders did not have to endure the rigors of playoffs.
The Owerri-based team triumphed over first-timer and NWFL Nationwide side, First Mahi, in the 2023 final held at the main bowl of Dan Anyiam Stadium in Owerri.
Both teams were then presented with the state's flags to represent Imo at the national stage finals. While First Mahi faltered in their debut at the national stage finals in the round of 32, the Owerri side outperformed Premier League team, Confluence Queens, at the same stage but was eliminated in the round of 16.
