About Sierra Leone Premier League
The Sierra Leone Premier League is the top professional football league in Sierra Leone. The league was founded in 1967 and is operated by the Sierra Leone Football Association.
The league is composed of 18 teams and operates on a promotion and relegation system with the second-tier First Division. The season typically runs from November to July, with each team playing 34 regular season games. The team with the most points at the end of the season is crowned the champion of the Sierra Leone Premier League.
The Sierra Leone Premier League has produced several notable players who have gone on to play for the national team and in other professional leagues around the world, including Mohamed Kallon, who played for Inter Milan and the Sierra Leone national team, and Ibrahim Koroma, who played for several clubs in Europe and Asia.
The league has faced significant challenges in recent years due to political instability and the Ebola virus outbreak in 2014-2015, which disrupted the league's schedule and led to the cancellation of the season. However, efforts are underway to revitalize the league and improve its organization and infrastructure.
Overall, the Sierra Leone Premier League is an important and competitive league in African football, providing a platform for both established and up-and-coming players to showcase their skills and potentially move on to play in other professional leagues or in international competitions.
