After the 41st edition of this season’s Nations Online Oware League, 101 players representing 31 known national teams in total have participated so far. 11 known national teams participated in the last edition of the tournament. The teams with the most players still remains Ghana 🇬🇭 (14). Followed by Nigeria 🇳🇬 (11) & Uganda 🇺🇬 (11) in equal 2nd place. Uganda 🇺🇬 had the most players (6) participate in the last edition. Benin 🇧🇯 (11) is still in 5th position.
Uganda 🇺🇬 in 2nd position, is increasing its lead and not making it easy for Nigeria 🇳🇬 in 3rd position to catch up. Stretching its lead even further to 61.5 points between them. Team Ghana 🇬🇭 with 15 players, has further stretched its lead to 1004.0 points, a reduced lead of 425.5 points ahead of Uganda 🇺🇬 last season’s winner in the 2nd position, with 578.0 accumulated by 11 players. In 3rd place is Nigeria 🇳🇬 represented by 11 players, with 517.0 points. Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 is still holding its own with 3 players in 4th position with 311.5 points. Whilst Benin 🇧🇯 with 11 players has amassed 224.0 points, is mounting a late surge to overtake Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 for 4th place. However Kazahkstan 🇰🇿 has responded with the addition of msh76.
Uncharacteristically Ghana 🇬🇭 fielded just 1 player in last week tournament maintaining its lead. With 12 tournaments to go, can any nation rise to the challenge and organise its players to challenge the top three positioned teams. Approaching the last stretch, is there still enough time for organised teams to climb up the ranks?
41 tournaments into the new season, way past the halfway mark and having surpassed last season’s total of 31 nations, we are in record breaking territory. Let’s double our efforts to get players from other nations to participate in this league and make it past 35 nations.
