KASU Valentine's Cup around the corner

NAMPA
The Katutura Sport Union (KASU) has set aside a total of N$30 000 to host the fifth annual edition of its Valentine's Cup competition slated for 9 February in the capital.

The tournament is aimed at celebrating the day and promoting sport in Katutura.

KASU chairperson Kuveri Tjonga told Nampa on Wednesday that of the N$30 000, N$10 000 is for netball, while N$20 000 is for the soccer categories.

The netball winner will take home N$5 000, a trophy and 12 gold medals, while runners-up will walk away with N$2 500 plus 12 silver medals.

Each semi-final loser will take home N$1 250.

The winning team in soccer will pocket N$10 000, a trophy plus 20 gold medals.

The runners-up will get N$5 000 and 20 silver medals, while the semi-final losers will each pocket N$2 500.

According to Tjonga, this is an open tournament and all teams are invited to participate except Namibia Premier League (NPL) teams.

“We will only allow three premier league players per team to boost the morale of the other players,” the chairperson said.

The registration fee for the tournament is N$1 800 and teams have until 5 February to pay, which is also the date of the draw.

The draw will take place at Namibia English Primary School at 19:00 in Katutura.

Chief Keja Football Club from Okondjatu are the defending champions in the football category, while Windhoek-based Truck Team won the netball category last year.

Khomasdal Stadium and the Katutura Youth Complex are the venues for this year's competition.

Established in 1992, the KASU aims to develop sport in Katutura through various local sport codes that engage young people in and around Windhoek.
