He said it was important to consider the increase to make the league competitive.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn Monday, we met our sponsor in Blantyre where he agreed to renew the contract. SRFA is very happy with this development,\u201d Humba explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet me also take this opportunity to say that Masters have assured the association that it will increase the amount of money come next season. We will hear more during the prize presentation ceremony,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Gangata said he was impressed with the way the league was administered in the just- ended season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wrote them that my company has renewed the contract and they also tabled various issues about the league. We will see how far we can go with it, but we are surely back this year,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have told them that the prize presentation for the 2016 season will take place in Lilongwe in the second week of February.\u201d<\/p>\n
