2024 DIGICEL EXXONMOBIL CUP ROUND 1 SCHEDULE
A super Saturday of rugby league will kick off the 2024 Digicel ExxonMobil Cup competition on April 13th with five matches across the country as we enter a new era focusing on a “Faster, Fairer, and Futuristic” game for our fans to enjoy.
Asila Waghi Tumbe will host the Gas Resources Central Dabaris in Minj as they return to the elite competition, whilst in West New Britain the WNB Provincial Government Kimbe Cutters will attempt to beat the Lae Snax Tigers, unless the visitors bite back.
Port Moresby will experience a triple treat of matches when the reigning champions the Kumul Mineral Holdings Enga Mioks take on the recently relocated ENB Agmark Gurias Gurias. PRK Gulf Isou will lead out the competition against the Wamp Nga Mt Hagen Eagles. Last year’s runners up the Bintangor Goroka Lahanis will face off against the Moni Plus NCDC Port Moresby Vipers.
Lae will be the centre of attention come Sunday 14th April with PRK Mendi Muruks and Kroton Hela Wigmen battling it out in front of an expected bumper crowd to complete the first round.
