The second phase which was initially scheduled for October is now set to hold a month later.

Lambu, who made the announcement in a letter to the participating clubs, said the arrival date for the top tier handball league is Tuesday November 26 while matches commence the next day, Wednesday November 27.

Phase one of the league came to an end May 30 in Benin City, Edo State with Tojemarine Academy and Safety Babes leaders of the first half.

Benin fans trooped out in large numbers to the venues to cheer their favourite teams while the federation also streamed the games live.

Lambu advised the 22 participating teams to begin registration of their players for the league in earnest before the commencement of the second phase of the league.
