Featherstone, speaking on behalf of MM said they were very pleased to make the small contribution to the Association which will be getting into full tournament gear shortly.
“MM Promotion is very happy to make this contribution to the game. We always contribute and will continue to do so in our own small way.
We have played the sport and passionately so; that passion still remains especially in the area of seeing youth development.”
GFA President Lt. Cdr Vernon Burnett expressed gratitude to MM Promotions for the contribution and assured that the balls will be used to enhance the sport in the city.
