LILONGWE-(MaraviPost)-Blue Eagles FC, the TNM Super League team sponsored by the Malawi Police Service, has announced a landmark strategic partnership with World Star Bet Malawi, one of the nation’s leading betting firms.
The collaboration marks a significant milestone in the club’s history.
The partnership includes a “Player of the Match” award, which will grant MK100,000 to the standout performer in every game Blue Eagles FC plays this season.
The signing ceremony took place today, Thursday, June 12, 2025, at the National Police Headquarters officers mess in Area 30 which Deputy Inspector General of the Malawi Police Service responsible for administration, Noel Kaira presided over.
Kaira expressed profound gratitude for the partnership. “On behalf of the Inspector General and the entire Malawi Police Organization, we are very excited because this is the first time Blue Eagles FC has secured a team sponsor.
“Previously, nobody wanted to partner with us, and this is a clear sign that the community is now showing trust in us. We are overjoyed and expect great things from this deal. We remain open to any individual, organization, or institution that wishes to partner with us—it’s a win-win situation.”
Kaira also emphasized the crucial role of discipline, urging players, supporters, administrators, and coaches to uphold ethical conduct.
“One of the key pillars we need to display is discipline. The sponsor will not be happy if we are involved in violence and hooliganism. We don’t want to be relegated again this year,” he added.
Timothy Mandimba, World Star Bet Malawi Country Director, explained the rationale behind the partnership.
“Looking at the invaluable security services that the Malawi Police Service provides to the country, we felt compelled to give back to the community,” Mandimba stated. “We firmly believe that this partnership will not only uplift the performance of the team but also significantly enhance the visibility of our brand.”
This partnership is widely anticipated to boost team morale and performance on the pitch significantly.
