After a successful hosting of the first edition of the Profemateur 7 in 2016, organisers of the event are set for this year's soccer game in Lagos state.
The Profemateur 7, or better still, Professional Amateur is a women's football competition put together by Royaltoms International Football Academy (RIFA), in conjunction with Soccer Queens and approved by the Nigeria Women Football League.

And it is proudly supported by some of Nigeria's Super Falcons players who sees it as an avenue of giving back to the society as well as encouraging young players.
