CEO Super League Kicks Off Season 2 with Expansion to 16 Teams, Emphasizing Business Community Passionate About Sports

CEO Super League officially launched its second season, expanding to 16 teams and involving 500 executives, while emphasizing its identity as a community of business leaders who love sports.

CEO Super League, or CSL, is a football league for top executives and business owners in Thailand aimed at social contribution. It held a press conference to officially launch its second season in 2026, opening for new members and business partners from today onward. The league plans to expand to 16 teams with over 500 members under the concept that it is not just a football league but a community of business leaders who value health, friendship, business networks, and social activities more than just winning or losing. The first season was hugely successful, attracting over 500 participants from various organizations and targeting over 200 million content views through live broadcasts and seasonal content.

Mr. Natthapon Lamkul, founder of CEO Super League, said, “This new season focuses on elevating professionalism and fully supporting all participants. We also help promote The Voice Foundation and House of Blessing Foundation. Membership management is handled through advanced technology, with comprehensive safety measures, on-site medical teams, and standardized physical preparation to ensure confidence for all members participating and connecting business partners through CSR activities alongside Miss Earth Thailand.”

Ms. Rattanun Wilailak, co-founder of CEO Super League, stated, “The first season proved that CEO Super League is more than a football league; it is a space where business leaders take care of their health, build friendships, and create business opportunities simultaneously. For season two, we have upgraded safety standards, off-field activities, and digital systems to ensure sustainable growth of this community, supported by Samart Corporation Public Company Limited.”

Dr. Sirikarn Onsongran, Chairperson of Miss Earth Thailand Organization, said, “Supporting constructive sports activities like this represents a new dimension for uniting to drive positive social and environmental change. Providing diverse executives the chance to engage in sports fosters not only strong health but also robust collaborative networks that develop business alongside sustainable social care.”

Dr. Sirikarn Onsongran brought Namneua-Waree Ngamkham, Miss Earth Fire 2025 and Miss Earth Thailand 2025, along with other Miss Earth contestants, to participate in CSR activities with CEO Super League this season.

Ms. Maemae, a Thai actress and female pilot who is CEO Super League’s Brand Ambassador, said, “I feel happy and enjoy playing football every time because it not only helps me exercise but also lets me meet new people, build good friendships, and participate in promoting social activities.”

Mr. Pengsak Sribua, Senior Director of MBK Real Estate Company Limited, said, “I am very glad to be part of CEO Super League and have continuously participated in social activities. I join every season because besides playing football, I get to meet friends and fellow businesspeople from various industries, build friendships, and exchange experiences.”

“I wish CEO Super League continuous growth with beneficial activities for society, and that it continues to offer opportunities for everyone to share friendships through football for many years to come.”

CEO Super League has also consistently promoted both foundations to ensure donations go directly to them without passing through the league.

• The Voice Foundation, under the leadership of Ms. Kae Chollada Mekratree, continuously advancing animal welfare in Thailand.

• House of Blessing Foundation supports disadvantaged people, ex-offenders, and youth to start new lives with stability.

The details and upgrades for season 2 include several interesting aspects.
