THE Rainbow Amateur Netball League (RANL) is set to hold its annual general meeting (AGM) this Saturday in preparation for the 2021 season.
The AGM was supposed to be held in January, but it had to be shelved due to COVID-19 restrictions which affected all sporting events.
Local football has already resumed with the clubs gearing up for the Chibuku Super Cup second matches next weekend, while netball is set to follow suit.
RANL secretary-general Moses Gukurume has said matches will commence after the AGM.
He added that two more teams have confirmed participation in this year’s edition.
“We are expecting to start our games immediately after the AGM. Now 18 teams are going to be available with an addition of Rio Zim and Golden Valley,” Gukurume said.
He said the posts of chairperson, vice-chairperson, secretary-general, vice secretary-general, treasurer, fixtures secretary and organising secretary will be up for grabs at the AGM.
