The Korea Football Association announced that the i-League, which celebrates its 10th anniversary, will start the league in 2023 with the official opening game held at Daegu Buk-gu Residents Stadium on the 20th.

In this year’s i-League,토스카지노 1,200 teams and 14,000 players from 42 regions nationwide will participate. The number doubled compared to the first year of launch. The number of matches per team has increased little by little, from the existing 6 rounds to 7 rounds last year and 8 rounds this year.
