Tiger Tanks will be the main spon­sor of this year’s Sec­ondary Schools Foot­ball League (SS­FL), Guardian Me­dia Sports was re­li­ably in­formed yes­ter­day.

An agree­ment be­tween the par­ties (Tiger Tanks and the SS­FL) was said to have been reached af­ter months of ne­go­ti­a­tions. Co­in­ci­den­tal­ly, a five-year agree­ment be­tween the SS­FL, Dig­i­cel and Sports­Max was sched­uled to con­clude in 2020 be­fore the in­ter­ven­tion of the COVID-19 pan­dem­ic threw every­thing in­to a tail­spin.

Un­der Tiger Tanks, the league is set to be well-served, in­clu­sive of uni­form pro­vi­sion and brand­ing, prizes and the broad­cast­ing of match­es for all the di­vi­sions, in­clu­sive of the Pre­mier­ship, Cham­pi­onship and all the low­er di­vi­sions.

Last week, Merere Gon­za­les, pres­i­dent of the schools league said they were hop­ing to ne­go­ti­ate for match­es in all di­vi­sions in the SS­FL to be broad­cast­ed ei­ther LIVE or shown de­layed on tele­vi­sion, which is an ini­tia­tive that would al­low all stu­dents to use the footage for the pur­pose of re­ceiv­ing schol­ar­ships or for their per­son­al use.

At to­day’s launch of the 2022 sea­son at the T&T Foot­ball As­so­ci­a­tion’s Tech­ni­cal Cen­tre at the Ato Boldon Sta­di­um in Bal­main, Cou­va, the ex­ec­u­tive is ex­pect­ed to un­veil its spon­sors and the league op­er­a­tions.

In­for­ma­tion reach­ing Guardian Me­dia Sports is that the League be called the Tiger Tanks Sec­ondary Schools Foot­ball League and that Tiger Tanks will take over all broad­cast rights from Ja­maican-based sports tele­vi­sion net­work - Sports­Max.

Tiger Tanks were the main spon­sor of a na­tion­al run and or­gan­ised Un­der-20 Foot­ball League which was played soon af­ter the lift­ing of the COVID-19 re­stric­tion in Jan­u­ary. A few years ago, Tiger Tanks found it­self in a row when its spon­sor­ship of Na­pari­ma Col­lege vi­o­lat­ed an agree­ment be­tween Dig­i­cel and the SS­FL.
