The Egyptian Professional Clubs Association has announced adjustments to the match schedule for the 2025/2026 Nile League season due to the high temperatures expected during August.
In a statement posted on the Association’s official Facebook page, it was explained that kickoff times for league matches throughout August will be delayed by one hour.
This change is intended to protect the health and safety of both players and fans and comes in response to requests from several clubs and after coordination with the relevant authorities.
According to the new schedule, matches will now begin at 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM instead of the previously scheduled times of 5:00 PM and 8:00 PM. The Association emphasized its commitment to ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for all participants during the intense summer heat.
