In all, 12 clubs have been invited from across the country to participate in the tournament.
‘The tournament, amongst others, is aimed at encouraging women football in Nigeria and prepare the various clubs to put them in top shape for the take-off of the new league season.
‘In line with the pet project of Edo State First Lady, the tournament is also aimed at pulling out adult females from the streets, especially those who show talents for football,’ the statement added.
