Three former Premier League sides are among the twelve qualifiers for the Division One League promotional play-offs which begins on 1 May.
BA Stars, relegated six years ago, are seeking a return to the top flight but must shrug off competition from the other qualifiers from Zone 1 which includes Bechem United, Upper East United and Guan United.
Dwarfs, plunged from the Premier League in 2000, face a tough task against another former Premiership side Mine Stars, in-form Medeama FC and West Ham.
Qualifiers for the Zone 3 battle include Tema Youth, Tudu Mighty Jets, Pure Joy FC and Abedi Pele's Nania FC.
Teams in each zone will play a round-robin to pick winners for the Groups who will play in the Glo Premier League next season.
