The Honiara Football Association (HFA) has announced that registration is now open for the upcoming football season, with 48 franchise clubs set to compete across three divisions. According to HFA records, 16 football clubs will participate in the Super League Division, another 16 clubs in the 1st Division, and the remaining 16 clubs in the 1st Division League Qualification.
Redley S. Raramo, General Secretary of the HFA, confirmed the registration fees and the closing date for registrations. There has been a slight increase in the registration fee to cover the costs associated with organizing the new football season (2024/25) competitions.
“All HFA-affiliated clubs from 2023 are eligible to register for the 2024/25 competition,” Raramo stated. “Clubs that failed to complete their registration fee last season are kindly asked to pay their outstanding fees, along with the new registration fee for the upcoming season.”
He further warned that failure to register would result in the exclusion of the team from any HFA-sanctioned tournaments. Interested new clubs wishing to compete in the 2025/2026 season are advised to contact the HFA at 7413435 to obtain application forms.
The registration deadline for the 2024/25 football season is set for Friday, July 19, 2024, at 4:30 p.m. Clubs are urged to complete their registrations before the deadline to secure their participation in the upcoming season’s competitions.
With the new season fast approaching, the HFA is gearing up to deliver an exciting and competitive football experience for players and fans alike. The association encourages all eligible clubs to register promptly and take advantage of the opportunity to showcase their talent and passion for the beautiful game.
