In anticipation of the upcoming Salima Sugar Netball League national finals in Lilongwe, the Karonga Queens have received crucial financial support from Mzuzu’s prominent business figure, Chauka Mwasinga.
Chauka Mwasinga has generously injected K200,000 into the Karonga Queens, significantly alleviating their financial constraints as they strive to meet their budget of K1.2 million for the upcoming journey.
In an exclusive interview with Avant Publications, Chauka Mwasinga emphasized the importance of supporting local teams that aspire to achieve excellence. His contribution underscores his dedication to community development and the nurturing of grassroots sports.
Catherine Shama, the committed coach of the Karonga Queens, expressed her profound gratitude for Chauka Mwasinga’s support. She highlighted the instrumental role this financial boost would play in ensuring the team’s smooth travel to Lilongwe on October 25, as they gear up for the national finals.
Shama also issued an earnest appeal to well-wishers and supporters, urging their participation in assisting the team to secure their budget of K1.2 million. This collective effort will bolster the Karonga Queens as they prepare to make their mark on the national netball stage.
The Salima Sugar Netball League national finals, generously sponsored by Salima Sugar Company with a K40 million sponsorship, will feature two Northern Region teams – the resilient Karonga Queens and the formidable Ekwendeni Resource Netball. This event promises to be a showcase of remarkable netball talent, regional pride, and the remarkable impact of community support.
