Ethiopia's first national FC 26 league. Twenty Premier League clubs. One slot per club. Earn your seat through open qualifiers — then play a 38-gameweek season for the title and a brand-new 2025 BYD Seagull 405KM.
Three phases. Open to anyone in Ethiopia with an FC 26 account and a controller. Win your bracket, claim your club, then play the longest competitive FC 26 season ever run on the continent.
Sign up for any club you want to represent. Each club runs its own knockout bracket — best of three, single elimination — until one player wins the slot.
On Draft Day all 20 winners are announced on a single live broadcast. Each is paired with their Premier League club for the season — jersey reveal, profile film, and seeding.
All 20 players play each other home and away — exactly 38 fixtures each. League table, top scorer race, GW awards, and a televised final at the host venue.
