The 2009 Banjul Nawetaan Championship is expected to be on break after the first week of the Ramadaan, and will resume on Friday, 25th September 09, says the Banjul Sports Committee.

As a measure to maintain discipline among players and coaches, the Banjul Sports Committee has again suspended Coach Lamin Kebbeh of One Love FC and Amadou Jallow for the rest of the 2009 Nawetaan for using abusive language against the referee on Tuesday, 11th August 09 in their match against Rankin UTD .
As a young upcoming coach, he is expected to lead by good example but his behaviour was completely unacceptable.
