The start of every new sporting season can be troublesome when it comes to finding a sponsorship, especially when a sponsorship deal is only for just one season.
That is the case with the Port Moresby Australian Football League (AFL) competition where the sponsorship by Moni Plus is just on an annual basis, leaving the Port Moresby AFL Association requesting at the end of every season for sponsorship for the next season.
However, the Association President Mr. Douglas Lai said they will be seeking to lock in a three-year sponsorship deal going forward to address this matter.
“This is because Port Moresby AFL is moving forward and rapidly growing and we want something to go on for three years,” said the president.
Therefore, he said the association will be putting in writing a formal request to Moni Plus for an extension for next season onwards so to have some stability in sponsorship going forward.
Meanwhile, Mr. Lai said the Port Moresby AFL Moni Plus 2022 season was a successful one after two years of disruptions due to the COVID- 19 pandemic and he is thankful for the continued support from its current sponsor and hopes to continue this into the future.
