BASMAL's major concern should be to make sure the athletes are available for 
the finals, otherwise what would the Tournament be if teams cant afford to make 
it?? Hence in my opinion before even considering the prize money, all stops 
shud have been pulled to make sure teams do come to BT!! We understand that the 
budget is limited, but guys its even tougher times for individuals....some have 
to ask from parents for money, others from friends!! 

With this budget, BASMAL is not meeting any extra cost for traveling players, 
we will all get lunch (including SOZOBAL players). This is why we always say 
when it comes to these games, SOZOBAL is favored, at least when it comes to 
Logistics. I know for sure if you asked SOZOBAL teams to meet their own 
transport to play in Mzuzu they would hear none of it...I played in SOZOBAL, I 
know.

We, as the players, would like to ask BASMAL to consider our well-being, so 
that we can play and enjoy the game!! Last year, BASMAL booked a nice bus for 
SOZOBAL teams, and i remember telling Ben that next time we are traveling, we 
would also want such consideration a it was a very welcome development!!! I 
cant believe 12 months down the line we go worse that previous years when at 
least transport only was provided!!

I wonder what will happen in LL and MZ teams say they cant manage to come???
