KONTIKI Finance has stepped up to support the forthcoming Banana Cup tournament, contributing a generous sponsorship of $2,000. The sponsorship was officially announced by marketing manager Joni Moce at the Suva Bowling Club yesterday. This initiative follows Kontiki’s successful sponsorship of the Pineapple Cup in September, underscoring their dedication to promoting local sports.
The Banana Cup, a prestigious national tournament with a storied history of over 60 years, is anticipated to attract between 20 to 30 players, including promising young talents under the age of 20 alongside seasoned national representatives. Event coordinator Litia Tikoisuva expressed her enthusiasm for the tournament, saying, “We are looking forward to a good weekend, and may the best team win.” She highlighted the tournament’s exciting unpredictability, where established players could be tested by emerging competitors.
Moce encouraged families and community members to attend the tournament this weekend, emphasizing that the sport not only requires skill but also strategic thinking. It promises to be a delightful event with ample entertainment, food, and beverages. “Bowling is a beautiful sport because it intertwines strategy with precision. We invite all family and friends to come down this weekend to experience the competition,” Moce remarked.
With the anticipation mounting, both Kontiki Finance and the tournament organizers are looking forward to uniting the community for another memorable event. The Banana Cup is scheduled to take place this Saturday at the Suva Bowling Club, starting at 9 a.m.
Overall, the sponsorship signifies a positive commitment to local sports and community engagement, creating an opportunity for both seasoned athletes and new talent to shine. This event not only fosters competition but also encourages community connection, making it an ideal occasion for families to come together.
