According to the schedule, participating clubs are expected to hit the host city on January 23, with the tournament pre-match meetings billed for the same day.

Sunshine Queens will battle Bayelsa Queens in the football event's opener on January 24, while holders Nasarawa Amazons take on Federation Cup winners Rivers Angels moments later.

While January 25 will be a rest day for the four teams, they will return to action on the 26th as the opening day winners battle for the crown after the completion of third-place match.
