Events
[edit]From season 2015, national league system went through many changes. LINAFOOT started operating the league.[2] The new system of 12 clubs from all over the country was introduced as well.[3] Clubs that played in the first division were: AS Lycod Doba, AS Mirim Mongo, AS Wadi Fira, ASCOT Moundou, AS CotonTchad, Elect-Sport FC, FC Kebbi, Foullah Edifice FC, Gazelle FC, Renaissance FC, Renaissance FC (Abéché), AS Kokaga. The matches were usually being played at 15:30h or 16:00h local time. Gazelle FC won the championship.[4] This edition of LINAFOOT was marked by many controversies, which led to proclaiming AS CotonTchad league champion, and then later giving Gazelle FC champion title back.[5] Following a controversy over a Gazelle player with contracts with two clubs, the Chadian Football Federation after their championship win decided to inscribe ASCOT and Renaissance FC into the African club competition, thus Gazelle did not appear in the 2016 CAF Champions League.
