The Division 2 of the Nigeria Volleyball Federation (NVBF) league season (home) will kick off on the 2nd to 12th May 2017 in Ogun state.

The division two was earlier slated for 27th March to 7th April by the League Management Committee.

The Technical Director, Nigeria Volleyball Federation, Martins Melandi said the shift of date was due to international championships lined up for next month.

Melandi said Nigeria is hosting the Zone 3 Africa Club Championships and Africa Senior beach volleyball championships in April.

He said, “The Division 2 has been moved to May due to the extension of club registration to 31st March and the hosting of two separate international championships. The country will host the Zone 3 Africa Club Championships and Africa Senior beach volleyball championships in April and we have to respect CAVB by shifting out local league”.

“After we confirmed the international tournaments for next month, we have written to the clubs who showed interest of participating in the division two that there is a slight change of date”.
