The Dimapur District Football Association (DDFA) has lauded the Nagaland Olympics Association (NOA) and Nagaland Football League (NLA) for coming up with the idea of organizing football league in the state. DDFA president, Joseph Sumi, while appreciating the NOA and NFA in a press communiqué stated that it was a dream which the DDFA has been trying to organize but due to “some technical and lack of funds support” the idea has been faded out. Sumi also stated that the organizing such a league in the state will provide a platform for many talented and upcoming footballers in the state level as well as to the higher levels. Similarly, he also appealed the NFA to extend monetary support to the district like Dimapur and Mokokchung where the district league is being held.
