The teams with the most players still remains Ghana ๐ฌ๐ญ (13), followed by Nigeria ๐ณ๐ฌ (11), and Uganda ๐บ๐ฌ (10). This tournament saw the addition of Serbia ๐ท๐ธ to the roster of nations represented.
These three national teams still hold the top three positions in the league. Ghana ๐ฌ๐ญ has stretched its lead to 700.0 points, increasing it to 355.0 points with 13 players, ahead of Nigeria ๐ณ๐ฌ with 10 players in 2nd place, with 345.0 points.

Whilst the UK ๐ฌ๐ง with 5 players has amassed 132.0 points.
Well done to Ghana ๐ฌ๐ญ for maintaining its lead, and consistently fielding the most number of players for each tournament, 7 last week. The stagnant numbers indicate there is plenty to do for the new a growth spurt to materialise. With 25 tournaments remaining, will any nation rise to the challenge and organise its players to challenge the top & top three positioned teams. Having reached the halfway mark there is still enough time for organised teams to climb up the ranks.

Letโs double our efforts to get players from other nations to participate in this league.
