WINDHOEKThe Bank Windhoek Fistball national cup tournament will take place on Saturday at the Cohen Fistball Club (CFC) in Windhoek.The national cup tournament takes place after the Bank Windhoek Fistball League. It is the final event in the Namibia Fistball Association’s season calendar.

With the first matches kicking off at 8:30, the prestigious tournament will be contested in four categories: A, B, the under-16 and 13s. The games will be played according to time and not sets. Only the final will be played according to the winning sets.

In category A, hosts CFC 1 will do everything possible to defend the state cup, while category B will be on the offensive. The seven-time national champion from the last eight years, CFC 1, will play against all three Sport Klub Windhoek (SKW) teams in category A.

The league runners-up, CFC 2, Swakopmund Fistball Club (SFC) 1, CFC 3 and SFC 2, will battle it out in category B. SKW A and SFC A u-16s offered the spectators a dramatic final with a better ending for the capital-based club in the playoffs six weeks ago.

Ambitious

The ambitions of revenge for the SFC A u-16 are, therefore, inevitable. Another exciting battle for the coveted title is expected in the u-16s. The favourites are SFC A and the newly crowned league champion, SKW A.

None of the teams in the u-13 category proved unbeatable this season, and the youngsters can expect nerve-wracking encounters.

The Bank Windhoek Fistball national cup tournament will conclude with an awards ceremony, including Player of the Year in the adult and youth categories and the Most Valuable Player for adults’ awards.
