The teams are Southern Mavericks men and women, Giants (men), Legends (men), Lakers (women) and Highlanders (men).

“Teams are expected to check in at the venue on Thursday evening and we believe that they’ll make us proud.

He said the players are in good shape as they had enough time to prepare for the finals in Mancaland.

“We are optimistic that the participating teams will be healthy and focused,” he said.

The three-day competition will be held at Mutare Boys High and Mutare Girls High.
