“Everything is now set for this year’s awards as preparations have reached their final stage,” Mazviro said.
“This year we will also be awarding Bulawayo players from the National Association of Primary Schools Head (NAPH) and National Secondary School of Heads (NASH) who represented the country in the Cossasa and Cusca games.
