We have seen fierce competition from the onset, with the traditional teams being severely tested by the newcomers and emerging units. This has certainly been a treat for the fans.”
The release further said, “Also the return of the Berlin tarmac to the list of venues has been another high point of the event. The residents of the area and respective environs came out in their numbers and supported the decision which is indicative of the community nature and groundings of the tournament.”
At the end of the group stage the top two finishers will progress to the knockout round. This will be staged on Friday at the National Cultural Centre tarmac.
Winner of the event will collect $500,000 and the championship trophy, with the second, third and fourth place finisher copping $300,000, $200,000 and $100,000 respectively and the corresponding trophy.
