Dynamos Football Club Supporters Association has banned “Sunday Offering” to players arguing it is a practice that has the potential to cause division among the team’s family members.

It had become tradition that at the end of a match, and specifically when Dynamos wins, some players head towards the terraces where they are spoiled with cash donations.

One of the biggest beneficiaries of the gesture has been Devon Mukamba.

But according to a Memo penned by the DFCSA secretary-general, Jane Mushininga, the practice may soon be a thing of the past. Dated May 5, it reads:

“It has come to our attention that the 'sunday offering" we give to players after matches in the stadium has the potential to cause divisions in the camp and bringing the brand and name of our sponsor into disrepute.

“Henceforth, we therefore urge all our supporters to stop this practice with immediate effect. Acknowledgement of good performance by our players is good from us as supporters, but we can use other means behind the scenes and not in stadia.

“We can organize our Marshals to be at the team bus after the match with boxes into which our supporters can drop their offerings . Thereafter, the money can be counted and shared to all players.

We promise to support the team without causing discontent in the camp as well as protecting the name of our principal sponsor.”
