Zimbabwe Cricket receives US$ 50,000 sponsorship to support domestic teams.
CABS, a banking organisation located in Zimbabwe, has sponsored Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) with US$50,000 in order to directly support the nation’s five top-tier provincial teams.
The money will be distributed to the five clubs who participate in the Logan Cup, the Pro50 Championship, and the domestic T20 competition—the Eagles, Rhinos, Tuskers, Mountaineers, and Southern Rocks—per a ZC release. Additionally, according to the announcement, the funding mechanism will be direct-to-team, enabling them to invest in important areas like player welfare, coaching, and talent development.
According to the statement, the direct funding model improves financial control and transparency, which will support more transparent budgeting and robust accountability.
“We are grateful to CABS for coming on board as a valued partner in our domestic cricket journey,” ZC managing director Givemore Makoni said. “This kind of corporate support plays an important role in strengthening the game’s foundation and enabling long-term growth.
“For our provincial teams, it means greater stability and the ability to invest more consistently in key areas such as player welfare, coaching and talent development – factors that are essential to building a stronger pipeline for the future of Zimbabwean cricket.”
CABS managing director Mehluli Mpofu said: “This sponsorship is more than support for cricket – it is a commitment to the dreams of Zimbabwe’s young people. Across the country, there are talented, passionate youths who see sport as a pathway to opportunity, purpose and pride.
“At CABS, we recognise that potential. By investing in domestic cricket, we are answering their call, building platforms for growth and helping shape a future where every young Zimbabwean has a chance to shine.”
