On Monday, the Umuahia Township Stadium served as the site of the inaugural Umu Chineke training session.
Head coach Imama Amapakabo oversaw the practice.
A continental spot was not available to the Abia Warriors last season.
The Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) standings showed that the Umuahia team came in at number seven.
Before the new season begins, the Abia Warriors will likely add to their roster with some new players.
Friday, August 28, 2026, will mark the start of the 2026–27 NPFL season.
