Moola Betting is strengthening preparations for the second edition of the Northern Annual Dreams Tournament, committing N$30,000 towards prize money alongside playing T-shirts for the football and netball competition scheduled for December.

Organisers confirmed that the corporate support will assist in expanding the event, attracting more participating teams, and providing young athletes with a platform to showcase their sporting talent while promoting positive community engagement.

The Northern Annual Dreams Tournament enters its second edition in December 2026, with organizers looking to build on the success of the inaugural event. While the previous edition included football, boxing, and netball, this year's focus will center exclusively on football and netball to accommodate expected higher turnout.

The financial injection and apparel contribution from Moola Betting provide crucial operational resources to elevate the standard of the competition.

Tournament Organiser Simon Mandime noted that the increased cash prizes enhance the event's overall appeal, projecting that between 40 and 50 teams could register for the upcoming edition.

Mandime also called on additional corporate partners and business entities to invest in community-based sporting initiatives. He emphasized that business support plays a vital role in empowering Namibian youth by steering them away from social challenges, such as alcohol and drug abuse, toward constructive athletic development.

Preparations are progressing ahead of the December kickoff, with organizers aiming to establish the Northern Annual Dreams Tournament as a sustainable talent identification initiative and a catalyst for youth development in the region.
