The diamond firm made the pledge early this year that if the soldiers finished the season in the top eight, they would sponsor the awards. The Saul Chaminuka-coached side ended the season on respectable sixth position with 44 points and for a team that was playing in the second tier league last season, it was a remarkable achievement.

Various accolades will be on offer, but Warriors trialist Prosper Matizanadzo is assured of getting something as he was the club’s top-goal scorer with seven goals. Matizanadzo is also tipped to fight for the Player of the Year award against the hard tackling defender Themba Ndlovu.

Ageless Buffaloes captain Dananai Chinowawa might also have a huge say in the Players of the Year award while dazzling midfielder Phillip Thembani also played his part in the army side exploits this year.

Buffaloes chairman Hlanganiso Matangaidze confirmed the development but did not confirm the sponsorship package.
