Tusker Premier League (TPL) and sports firm Puma through
their representatives Nairobi Sports House have signed a three and a half year
sponsorship deal worth Sh10 million to supply match day and training balls to
the 16 clubs in the league.
The clubs will benefit as challenges of low quality, fake
balls and lack of money to purchase balls has greatly affected their progress. Puma
is also set to benefit from branding and advertising rights alongside official
league sponsors.
The Kenyan Premier League recently bagged a three-year deal
worth 170 million-sponsorship deal from East Breweries Limited, resulting to
the change of its name to the Tusker Premier League.
The league also enjoys another sponsorship from Supersport
who broadcast the live matches.
Nairobi Sports House and FKF are also working on a deal that
will see it distribute all TPL merchandise in the country.
