CEO Super League Launches Season 2 With Expanded Vision
CEO Super League launches its second season Tuesday in Bangkok with 18 teams—up from 16—aiming to expand beyond competitive football into a networking platform for executives, entrepreneurs, and celebrities, with over 500 players competing
The CEO Super League football tournament officially opens its second season on Tuesday, September 15, 2026, at Super Star Arena in Bangkok, with a press conference and launch event for media, partners, and stakeholders. The league plans to elevate competition quality, content, and member activities beyond the first season.
CEO Super League was established to create a football community for executives and professionals from various fields, bringing together business leaders, entrepreneurs, artists, celebrities, and influencers to compete together. The league transforms football from merely a sport into a platform for building new connections, exchanging business opportunities, promoting health, and driving social initiatives through sports. A distinctive feature is allowing male and female players to compete together on the same teams, reflecting values of equality, participation, and collaboration. In the first season, 83 women participated among over 500 total players.
Founders Tam Nathapol Lamkul and Fone Rutnan Wilailaksana presented the vision and overview for season 2/2026, along with introducing new partners joining the league. A major highlight was unveiling Meme Thanyawee Chunsuvasditikul, an entrepreneur and influencer, as Brand Ambassador for CEO Super League season 2/2026, who will participate in communications and league activities throughout the season.
Tam Nathapol stated: "From the beginning, we did not want CEO Super League to be just a football league. We wanted to create a community that uses football as a medium to bring together people from diverse fields—executives, entrepreneurs, artists, celebrities, and influencers—because we believe good relationships and new business opportunities can start from playing together and doing activities as a community."
"From the first season starting with 16 teams to this season expanding to 18 teams, this signals growing acceptance of the CEO Super League concept. Our goal is not just to make the competition bigger, but to strengthen this community and create value for members, partners, and everyone involved in the league."
Co-founder Fone Rutnan discussed season two goals: "The first season showed us CEO Super League's potential in many ways—player numbers, member participation, and online engagement. In season 2/2026, we are working to elevate the league comprehensively across competition quality, live broadcasts, player safety, digital experience, and off-field activities."
"We want people in CEO Super League to feel they are not just playing football once a week, but truly becoming part of a community with new connections, joint activities, and ongoing opportunities to participate throughout the season. I believe this is what sets CEO Super League apart from typical football leagues."
Following the first season's success with 16 teams, over 500 players, and more than 18 million content views, CEO Super League advances to season 2/2026 by expanding to 18 teams while developing enhanced experiences both on and off the pitch. All matches will be live-streamed.
