CRDB Super Cup 2025 hits ground running

Dodoma: The CRDB Super Cup was launched in Dodoma over the weekend, featuring 23 teams from across the country and Inzovu Football Club from Burundi.

Launching the competition in the capital city, CRDB’s Director of Banking Operations, Mr Adimin Mwansasu, said the bank has introduced a new system in this 5th edition, making it distinct from previous ones as it is now characterized by multi-country, multi-currency, and multi-institutional participation.

He noted that the names of the teams participating in the competition have been derived from the bank’s services offered both within and outside the country.

Mr Mwansasu explained that the initiative aims to help staff enhance socialization and improve productivity, urging players to observe fair play throughout the competition, which features various games, including football and netball.

“As we play, let’s maintain professionalism by listening to each other on the field and using decent language, since sport is meant to promote unity, not enmity,” he said.

He added that the next edition will advance further by including a team from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where CRDB operates through its sister company.

On the other hand, Bruckse Muries, Inzovu FC’s technical leader, said the competition serves as a bridge among the bank’s staff, promising that his team is ready to lift the trophy after thorough preparation.

Expressing optimism about the mini-tournament, Muries added that the event will boost morale among employees, helping them improve their key performance indicators (KPIs) as well as their fitness.
