First Capital Bank (FCB) has secured the naming rights of Nyasa Big Bullets FC seasonal awards.
The development was announced on Wednesday at a press briefing in Blantyre.
This means the seasonal awards will be called the First Capital Bank Bullets Awards.
FCB head of marketing Twikale Chirwa said the bank feel duty-bound to bankroll the red carpet event apart from being the official sponsors of the club.
Chirwa announced the bank has since injected K10 million into the FCB Nyasa Big Bullets seasonal awards.
The awards ceremony is scheduled for December 23 at the Golden Peacock Hotel in the commercial capital.
“Last year, the team won all the major trophies in the land but could not properly reward the players for their great achievement because the team was too busy and not available for the awards.
“We feel time is now ripe to recognise their efforts and performance in the just-ending season,” Chirwa said.
Chirwa also disclosed the bank will also give out monetary prizes for some Bullets legends and supporters.
