The Black Africa Football Club has launched a SMS campaign through which football lovers stand a chance to win monthly cash prizes amounting to N$50,000.
According to Cassius Moetie, chairperson of the club, the campaign will run until the end of the 2011/2012 football season.
“We will start the SMS Campaign ahead of the Katutura Derby between Black Africa and Orlando Pirates. We would like to know who will walk away with N$2 500 after predicting the final score in this long-awaited derby,” Moetie said.
Fans can send their SMS to 89888 with their prediction in order to qualify for the cash price. The winner will be announced immediately after the match at the Sam Nujoma Stadium.
Moetie urged the public to send as many text messages as they can.
“We will announce the winner after the match and locate him or her immediately on their cellphone. If we are unable to locate the winner after three mobile call attempts, we will draw again to find a winner for this exciting competition,” he said.
He said that one sms cost N3.00 and the sms campaign is not only applicable to football lovers in Windhoek alone, but also to all other football fanatics all over Namibia. “You are all invited to participate in this fan-based football initiative,” the chairman said.
“After the Katutura derby, we will also invite football lovers to predict which NPL club will top the log standing by the end of November. This time people will stand a chance to win N$5 000. A Christmas bonus of N$10,000 is up for grabs for the lucky person who correctly predicts which NPL club will top the log standings by the end of the first leg of the MTC/NPL Premier League, before the Christmas Window Break,” Moetie added.
“When the MTC/NPL Premier League resumes in January 2012, we know the league will be very competitive and therefore guarantees more excitement in our beautiful game. The SMS campaign will invite football lovers to predict which NPL Club will top the log standings between February and March 2012. Each winner in this draw will walk away with N$5 000. For the months of April and May 2012, football lovers will be in for a big treat as they will stand a chance to take a cool N$25 000 to the bank by predicting which NPL Club will be crowned Champions of Namibian Football,” Moetie concluded.
SMSes will cost N$3.
