FAM extends Carlsberg registration

FAM has extended Carlsberg Cup registration for regional teams to May 20 2013.

Initially, registration for this phase were supposed to be closed on May 13 2013 with the draw slated for May 14 2013.

But the process, which ran for a week from May 6, met little response from the teams who complained that the period was too short.

It was noted that during the same period, teams were competing in the Presidential Cup whose regional finals were completed on May 14.

As such, they did not have enough time to organise themselves to register for the competition.

FAM, therefore, dicided to accord all teams an equal opportunity to get organised and register for the competition.

Meanwhile, FAM says regardless of the number of teams that are going to register, the draw will proceed as planned.

Registration fees remain at K 7 500 (about $18).

In a related development, Carlsberg Malawi will on Friday afternoon conduct the second draw for the Win for Your Club Promotion at the company’s premises in Makata, Blantyre.

FAM is, therefore, asking all Super League teams to send only two supporters representatives to the function set to start at 2pm.

In the Win for Your Club Promotion, fans are supposed to vote for their clubs by texting a number under the bottle tops of Carlsberg products to help their team win K5 million (about $12 500).
