The Fashion Sakala Provincial Cup Final is set to take place on Sunday, June 29, 2025, in Chipata City, featuring both men’s and women’s leagues. This exciting event promises to showcase talent, unity, and the transformative power of sports.
The tournament’s founder, Zambian football star Fashion Sakala, announced the new date after a period of national mourning following the death of former President Edgar Lungu, which led to the event’s postponement. Sakala expressed gratitude to the public for their support and patience during this time.
Community Donations
In addition to the tournament, community donation activities will commence on July, 1st, 2025.
The initiative aims to support vulnerable community members, including elderly citizens and individuals living with disabilities, by providing wheelchairs and blankets.
Sakala’s Philanthropic Efforts
Fashion Sakala’s commitment to giving back to his community is evident in his various philanthropic endeavors.
He has donated over K1 million to support football development in Eastern Province and has also provided assistance to those affected by climate change and floods.
His efforts extend beyond sports, as he builds a secondary school in his hometown to reduce illiteracy.
