The second edition of the Nepal Super League will take place from November 25 onwards.
Organisers, Nepal Sports and Event Management (NSEM), on Thursday, informed the second edition of the country’s only franchise football league will start on November 25 and end on January 6, 2024.

The first season of the NSL took place in April – May 2021. Kathmandu Rayzrs won the inaugural season.
The second season of the NSL was due to take place in 2022 but due to a dispute between A-Divison clubs and NSL, the league didn’t happen.
