It is a health-conscious project that encourages adults aged 35 and up to adopt a healthy lifestyle by playing football. The league was initiated by five football-crazed friends: Jamonger, Lipokyanger, Imliwabang, L Anungba Imchen, and Imtiyanger Imsong.

The league’s inaugural season, which began on 6 May 2022, featured six teams: New Ecclesia FC, Aturar FC, Revenant FC, Royal Enfield Mokokchung (name changed to Wasang FC in 2nd season), Senso Sporting Club and Terokroker FC.

The same teams participated in Season 2 as well.
