The Cameroon Football Federation, FECAFOOT, has issued a kick-off deadline for all its leagues, for the 2017-18 football season.

According to a communiqué signed on Friday 26th January, 2018, by the Secretary General of FECAFOOT, Martin Etonge, February 25, is the latest date to launch all competitions whether, divisional, regional or national. 

In this regard, clubs eligible have been urged to submit required documents on or before the 16th of February, 2018. 

The communiqué further states that competitions that fail to take off by February 25 will be considered inexistent in the current season.
