Friday Night Lights Set to Thrill Varsity Basketball Lovers

Campus basketball lovers will this week begin to take part in the two month Castle – Lite Friday Night Lights basketball league that starts on 30^th January and ends on 20^th March. Through numerous challenges, fans will engage in games that will include their icons and stand chances to win various prizes.

The event managers, Kinetic Management Group (KMG) have promised challenging and entertaining nights out for the fans. KMG’s Vicky Ntale pointed out that the point of the competition was to give the fans a chance to express their love for the game through participation in the challenges as well as supporting the existing teams.

“Our aim with the introduction of Friday Night Lights was to grant the fans a platform where they could interact with some of the local stars. It gives us great pleasure to see that five years down the line we are returning with just that,” said Vicky.

Daphne Mwesigwa, Brand Manager Castle Lite re-affirmed Castle- Lite’s commitment to the annual fan event stating that, “the Ushs 300M commitment that was made by the brand in 2013 for a period of three years still stands.”

“Over the years Friday Night Lights has experienced tremendous growth which resonates with our brand perfectly. Because of its low carb content, Castle Lite can be enjoyed at any time of the day, also making it the perfect beer for people that partake in sports.” She also added that as the event that leads up to the basketball league, the property tunes the Ugandan basketball lovers mind into what is to come for the year.

Taking part this year are Team Ikong (the defending champions), Koma, Sudi, Amoding, Blick, Enabu, Malinga, Duxx, Legends and Team Lamunu who are new to the games. Entrance to the games remains Ush 5,000.
