Southern Region Football Association (SRFA) has pressed the panic button over promised sponsorship from Nsejjere Casual and Sports Wear.<\/p>\n
SRFA general secretary, George Pagaja, said they were keeping their fingers crossed over expected prize money from Nsejjere before the conclusion of the league.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe need to work out something since it is not clear whether Nsejjere will honour the deal. We know it will be harsh on the teams if they don\u2019t get anything,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Pagaja said they were exploring other ways to source the money for top three teams.<\/p>\n
Max Bullets, Cobbe Barracks and Mangochi Police are the current first, second and third-placed teams in the Premier Division.<\/p>\n
During the first season, Nsejjere gave K1.5 million to Surestream Academy (now Fisd Wizards) for emerging Premier Division champions.<\/p>\n
The firm also gave K750,000 to second-placed Cobbe Barracks while Max Bullets, who finished third, got K500,000.<\/p>\n
However, there were no prizes for Division One teams.<\/p>\n
Nsejjere\u2019s local representative, Jacob Chikoya, said he was no longer involved with the firm, and referred this reporter to former Flames midfielder Peter Mgangira.<\/p>\n
Mgangira said the firm\u2019s lawyer, Moses Nkhono, was better placed to comment. Nkhono promised to come back with a response<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
