The All India football Federation (AIFF) league committee has put forward a recommendation for a promotion and relegation system for the Indian Women’s League (IWL), which was established in 2016. Throughout its six seasons, the IWL has witnessed four different teams clinching the title, with Gokulam Kerala, the current champions, triumphing on three occasions. In a significant development, the committee proposed the introduction of a promotion-relegation mechanism involving both the IWL and IWL 2, slated to be implemented from the 2024-25 season. The AIFF stated in a release, “The committee reviewed the nominations submitted by various state associations for IWL 2 and suggested steps to finalize it. After extensive deliberations, the committee recommended setting February 5, 2024, as the deadline for IWL 2 team nominations.” The event features a total of seven teams, and the champions earn the opportunity to compete in the AFC Asian Women’s Club Championship, the premier women’s club competition in the region. Furthermore, the committee also examined the proposed calendar for AIFF Club competitions starting from the 2024-25 season during a meeting held on Thursday. Additionally, they granted approval for the regulations governing the ongoing I-League 2 season. Leading the virtual meeting were Lalnghinglova Hmar, M. Satyanarayan (acting secretary), Santanu Pujari (deputy chairperson), along with committee members Arif Ali, Caitanno Jose Fernandes, Anirban Dutta, and Amit Chaudhuri. The committee members also expressed their heartfelt condolences for the passing of Sandeep Chattoo, the owner of Real Kashmir FC, last month.
