I am in the final (testing) phase of the development of a Fantasy Football website based entirely on the Nigerian Premier League. As with all such sites, the fantasy league is based on the performance of the players in the real league - in this case the Nigeria Premier League. This is the first site dedicated solely to the local league, developed by Nigerians for Nigerians. This site will be 100% free to use.

Obviously there are some challenges in making this a reality, most of these being informational, especially data from the NPL (e.g. all submitted players names for each season). I am currently working to contact the NPL concerning this.
Anyway - I believe we will solve the data issue, as I am currently working on this. At the moment though, I am looking to test the functionality of the site itself, and would like to invite anyone keen on being a part of this interesting venture.

Basically, volunteers would simply log in to the site, create their 'teams' and run a pseudo-league, testing all the components of the site.
Unfortunately, I cannot offer any sort of remuneration for this - I simply hope that in the spirit of promoting the beautiful game locally while having fun, a few people can volunteer to be part of this.

The site will kick off formally with the new 2010/2011 season.

If you are interested, please contact me at dubainaija@iname.com.
