Mongolia National Premier League Clubs & Stadiums

Mongolia National Premier League

Mongolia is a football mad nation and the beautiful game is definitely the most popular team sport since the game was introduced to the nation in 1946.

The highest level of domestic football in the 'Steppes' is the Mongolia National Premier League which started in 1996.

The Mongolian domestic season consists of the Premier League, MFF Cup and Mongolia super cup.

Clubs

There are ten teams that compete in the league and past recent winners include Erchim and Ulaanbaatar City and Athletic 220 FC.

Due to the harsh weather, seasons start in late April and last until late October or early November as the freezing cold weather makes surfaces unplayable and conditions are too frigid to play top level games.

Games are regularly played at the MFF Football Centre, National Sports Stadium, G-Mobile Arena, Erchim Stadium & Erdenet Stadium.
