MONEY is talking loud in Division One and it’s speaking Herentals!
In a major score for grassroots football, Herentals Group of Colleges has dropped a US$10 000 sponsorship package for the ZIFA Southern Region Division One League, igniting a new era of reward and recognition.
Unveiled at a glitzy ceremony held on Sunday at the ZIFA Southern Region offices, the sponsorship will bankroll the Monthly Player of the Month and Coach of the Month awards — injecting serious motivation and spotlight into the lower league.
“This partnership is not just about money, it’s about celebrating excellence, encouraging talent, and pushing the league to greater competitive heights,” said officials at the event.
The move is expected to energise both players and coaches, with every fixture now a stage for potential glory and a fat envelope to match!
With Herentals already a household name in football and education, this latest power play cements their growing influence in Zimbabwe’s football development pipeline.
The beautiful game just got a beautiful boost!
