“And I hope with Kontiki sponsorship the teams will perform to their outmost and bring some happiness into the Police family, “And I hope our warriors will give their best so the best team could be selected to play and win for constable Jiuta and his family and for all us when we finally meet up against our counterparts in the Sukuna Bowl.
