The Hockey National Team's kit sponsorship deal from OYDC, in partnership with Cavendish University, has made history as the first Hockey National Team to be supported by a corporate partner. This partnership holds great promise for the team and highlights the increasing recognition of hockey in the world of professional sports. Under this sponsorship, the players and the technical staff of the Hockey National Team will benefit from a full kit package, which includes training gear, game kits, and tracksuits. Frederick Chitangala, Director of OYDC, has urged the team to rise to the occasion and deliver an outstanding performance. He emphasized that their success on the field would solidify that they are deserving of this sponsorship. Elvis Bwalya, General Secretary of the Zambia Hockey Association, expressed his excitement about the new kits. He noted that the team had been using old jerseys for an extended period, and the arrival of these new uniforms serves as a source of motivation for the players. Not only will the kits enhance the team's appearance, but they will also inspire the players to prepare and practice with renewed motivation.
