adminPSL chief executive Kenny Ndebele said the move was aimed at improving efficiency and crowd controls.
The league and some big clubs like Dynamos and Highlanders reportedly lose lots of money owing to the lack of sound management at the gates while football fans have gone through hell to gain entrance to watch big matches.
There have been allegations that the clubs are being milked almost every week as some gates are reportedly not accounted for.
“We have had big crowds at the stadiums this season but the situation at the gates still has not improved from previous years. The so-called turnstiles make it difficult to allow many people through the entrance points in a short time.
“It’s better if we had advance tickets or compu-tickets. It’s possible to have a tap and go system, or to introduce swipe cards for the season to allow smooth entrance into the match venues.
“We will be looking to engage the stadium authorities to move towards electronic instruments for easy management of the gates. We are now living in the computer age and I don’t think it will be an impossible thing with all this modern technology,” said Ndebele.
The league has seen large numbers of people returning to the stadium this year with the Battle of Zimbabwe pitting Dynamos and Highlanders topping the charts. The first leg attracted 25 957 paying fans, which was a record high for Barbourfields in the last six years. The match grossed $104 445 and left Bosso with a net income of $40 500.
But the Battle of Zimbabwe Part II at Rufaro broke the ceiling in terms of revenue generated from the gates when 28 868 people paid through the turnstiles to realise a record breaking gross income of $168 440.
