Since its inception in 2022, the championship has produced thrilling finals—Sungkomen Ward won the inaugural edition, Kumlong Ward took the title in 2023, and Sungkomen reclaimed it in 2024.

The 2025 edition introduces a new rule allowing each team to include two non-resident players, provided they are Ao-Naga, a move expected to intensify the competition.

Winners will receive a cash prize of INR 50,000 and runners-up INR 30,000, besides individual awards for best setter, best spiker, and player of the tournament.

The deadline for submitting entry forms is September 25, 2025. Interested teams can contact 7005511900 or 8837066465 for details.
