Bunu was speaking at an appreciation ceremony to thank Lucara for sponsoring the league on Friday. In 2019 Lucara sponsored the regional association’s Division One league to the tune of P500,000.

The sponsorship is for two seasons. It ended recently. “Since the sponsorship was launched, we have seen younger players shunning the constituency league in favour of participating in the regional league.

He noted that some teams that participated in the constituency league have also joined the regional league because they now find it attractive as it has a solid sponsor.
