The event will see prizes such as kits and other sporting equipment being awarded to teams and individual players.
a�?This is a Christian league and our top objective is to grow in terms of our religion, so the awards will also see individuals being given Bibles, medals and certificates,a�? said Mundofa.
Mundofa said prizes were also going to be awarded to outstanding players in all the teams from both disciplines.
a�?Every week in our leagues we choose the Most Outstanding Players for that particular period and at the end of the season, the player who featured most as outstanding for his club will get an award,a�? he added.
Last seasona��s outstanding Players of the Year in the football league got a chance to play against Bulawayo giants, Highlanders who were in their pre-season preparations.

Mundofa also added that every team affiliated to the league would be awarded something as a token of appreciation and in the hope that more teams were going to affiliate with their league for the next season.
