So far, nine franchises have reportedly expressed their interest in participating in the much-awaited Nagaland Super League (NSL), set to kick off in December 2024.
The NSL Governing Body has introduced a detailed eligibility and operational framework to ensure transparency and professionalism in franchise ownership. Ownership is open to individuals, groups, or corporations that meet the established criteria. Prospective franchises must be registered legal entities, such as societies, corporations, or private limited companies. Provisional registration documents are acceptable if the registration process is ongoing.
Franchises must also provide proof of a valid Permanent Account Number (PAN) and a bank account. Similar to registration, provisional documents are acceptable if applications are in process. Furthermore, all franchises must secure registration with the All India Football Federation (AIFF) and the Nagaland Football Association (NFA).
A contractual agreement with the NSL Governing Body is mandatory, binding the franchise to a minimum operational period of three years. Additionally, an initial, non-refundable franchise fee of Rs. 5,00,000 is required. If the number of applicants exceeds eight, an auction will be conducted to finalize the franchise holders, ensuring fair competition and transparency.
Franchise owners will be responsible for team operations, branding, and community engagement. They will also share revenue generated from the league’s central pool, including ticket sales, sponsorships, broadcast rights, and merchandise sales. Owners will have exclusive rights to sell team-branded merchandise such as jerseys, scarves, and caps.
Each franchise team must have a minimum of 24 players and a maximum of 30 players. At least six players under the age of 20 (U-20) who are indigenous inhabitants of Nagaland must be recruited. Furthermore, a minimum of two U-20 players must feature in the starting lineup for every match.
Teams are permitted to sign up to six guest players, provided they are registered with the AIFF. However, only three guest players can be on the field during a match. U-20 players will receive a base salary of Rs. 20,000 per month, while other players will be paid a base salary of Rs. 30,000 per month, both for a minimum duration of three months.
