After the 27th edition of this season’s Nations Online Oware League, 83 players representing 29 known national teams in total have participated so far. Last week 12 national teams participated. The teams with the most players still remains Ghana 🇬🇭 (13), followed by Nigeria 🇳🇬 (11), and Uganda 🇺🇬 (10). This tournament saw the addition of Serbia 🇷🇸 to the roster of nations represented.
These three national teams still hold the top three positions in the league. Ghana 🇬🇭 has stretched its lead to 700.0 points, increasing it to 355.0 points with 13 players, ahead of Nigeria 🇳🇬 with 10 players in 2nd place, with 345.0 points. Uganda 🇺🇬 last season’s winner has accumulated 338.5 with 10 players. Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 is holding its own with just 2 players in 4th position with 200.5 points. Whilst the UK 🇬🇧 with 5 players has amassed 132.0 points.
Well done to Ghana 🇬🇭 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.
Once again national teams from Afrika, America & Asia (Europe) were all represented. 27 tournaments into the new season, we have surpassed the halfway mark and have surpassed last season’s total of 25 nations, one record that has been broken. Let’s double our efforts to get players from other nations to participate in this league.
