This was part of the resolutions made at the recently concluded meeting of the association Board members where other decisions as regards crucial matters concerning Ekiti Football Ecosystem were made.

It was agreed upon that the two finalists of the Federation Cup State Preliminaries to be played at the Federal Polytechnic Ado, shall represent the state at the national level while the State FA Cup for Champions that kicks off later in month will hold to decide the champions of the Ekiti Football Ecosystem.

While appreciating the sponsor of the State League - Bet9ja,  the Board maintained that the final of the State League will hold on May 20th while the State FA Cup Final will be held on the 26th of May, 2023 if approved by the Congress.
