The BVI Football Association on Sept. 15 awarded Concacaf regional club licenses to Panthers FC, Rebels FC, Islanders FC, Virgin Gorda United, and Wolues FC, while also issuing domestic club licenses to Positive FC, One Love United, Sugar Boys FC, Avengers FC, Old Madrid, and Lion Heart FC.
The licenses were granted as part of Concacaf’s club licensing program, which establishes minimum standards for club operations and eligibility to compete in regional competitions. The move comes ahead of the start of the 2025 National League, scheduled to begin on Sept. 27.
In addition to licensing, the BVIFA distributed training balls to support the clubs’ preparations for the new season. Association officials said the equipment is intended to strengthen readiness and maintain competitive standards as teams gear up for league play.
The National League is the BVIFA’s top domestic competition, and the newly licensed clubs are expected to participate when matches begin later this month.
