ZHA APPEAL FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

ZAMBIA Hockey Association (ZHA) vice president Thomas Mumba has appealed to well-wishers to come on board and help the association with funds for the Zambia under 18 National Hockey team.

Speaking in an interview with Lusaka star, Mumba said the association is facing financial constraints and will not be able to send the required two teams to the tournament.

“We are suppose to send two teams to Algeria for the hockey tournament. However, due to lack of finances we will only send the boys team,” he said.

“The preparations for the boys’ team are on course and I urge fans to rally behind them,” he said.

He said the under 18 Hockey National team will be participating in a 5-aside Hockey tournament scheduled for Algeria and Zambia is expected to take part.
