This collaboration was announced on Friday amid a special function in The Plaza, Lalitpur. Under this partnership, Ncell would power up Nepali fans’ most loved sports, contributing to football development in Nepal and building an avenue for local talent to showcase themselves. Ncell’s philosophy of keeping Nepal and consumers connected resonates with the sentiment and passion for football.
Founded in 2021 and organised by NSEM with technical support from the All Nepal Football Association (ANFA), NSL has quickly become the backbone of sporting activities in the nation. The competition has long since grabbed much attention and participation throughout different parts through franchises, representing its regional roots and hence promoting regional pride and togetherness.
The Nepal Super League (NSL) will start its official fixtures on March 29, 2025, with fierce competition between seven teams: Butwal Lumbini FC, Dhangadhi FC, FC Chitwan, Jhapa FC, Kathmandu Rayzrs FC, Lalitpur City FC, and Pokhara Thunders FC. It is an awaited moment of excitement and thrill in the country as several teams will battle for victory.
Speaking to journalists, the Managing Director of Nepal Super League (NSL), Shreyans Karki, expressed his excitement regarding the collaboration: “We are delighted to welcome Ncell as the title sponsor of NSL. Together, we hope to take Nepali football to new heights and create a stronger football culture.”
Reflecting on Ncell’s collaboration with the NSL, Umair Mohsin, Chief Commercial Officer of Ncell, stated: “Our partnership with NSL exemplifies Ncell’s dedication to the development of sports in Nepal. We believe in the power of football to unite communities and inspire positive change. By supporting the NSL, we aim to provide a platform for Nepalese footballers to excel and bring pride to the nation. This collaboration aligned with our theme ‘Here for You’ reflects the immense value and appeal we place on sports, embodying the spirit of growth, innovation, and a mutual dedication to excellence.”
NSL has been in close association with Ncell since last year, thus marking a memorable moment in Ncell’s continued engagements toward the enhancement of sports along with the upliftment of youth throughout the entire nation. Through this partnership, Ncell reiterates its commitment to promoting local talent in the football scene while improving the entire sports infrastructure in the country.
This new season of the league promises to deliver heavy matches, bright new faces, and, of course, a real taste of the Nepalese culture in football. Ncell’s support for the NSL focuses on sports development, youth empowerment, and the promotion of healthy lifestyles through sports. It’s more about connectivity with sports and Nepal.
This is an investment not only to promote sports talent in Nepal but also for the viewers and fans who make such tournaments successful. As a responsible corporate citizen, Ncell has contributed significantly to sports development and talent nurturing in Nepal since its inception. The company has supported football, cricket, volleyball, and golf, and under its Corporate Social Responsibility, the Ncell Foundation has supported para-athletes in various national and international events.
