In cerebration of the achievement, the team presented the championship trophy to their sponsor, MUBAS ICE, at the MUBAS Main Campus in Blantyre.

Speaking during the presentation, Manager of the Institute of Continuing Education at MUBAS, Dr. Andrew Chimpololo says he is impressed with the team’s success especially considering that while MUBAS is more engaged in academic activities, sporting activities remain part of an important pillar of the university’s mission.

“ICE supports several sporting activities within the university, including football, netball, and volleyball,’’ said Chimpololo.

He further described darts as a sport that promotes mental wellbeing, relaxation, and companionship among staff members and he reaffirmed the institute’s commitment to continued sponsorship, with ambitions not only to win more trophies but also to compete for the national championship.

Commenting on the team’s success Jeremiah Mwakayoka described the season as challenging but rewarding.

“The victory represents remarkable progress for the team, which finished fourth in last year’s league,” said Mwakayoka.

He expressed gratitude to ICE for its unwavering support to the team.

MUBAS ICE has sponsored the darts team since 2014 and this is the first time the team has won the trophy.
