Get ready for the DStv Diski Challenge

THE PSL, together with MultiChoice, announced the rebranding of the MultiChoice Diski Challenge at the 2020-21 season launch at PSL headquarters yesterday and will henceforth be known as the DStv Diski Challenge.

“The first thing is the brand is going through a brand refresh. We are quite excited to announce that starting from today the MDC will be known as the DStv Diski Challenge,” said MultiChoice CEO Nyiko Shiburi. “We also have a new logo that just enhances and shows the strength of the relationship that we have with the PSL so we are really excited about that.”

The internal rebrand includes the introduction of a Top 8 Competition which will launch next year.

“Unfortunately, because of the Covid-19 disruption we could not play the normal season to the end because of the uncertainties but now what we have done together with MultiChoice was to make sure we add what we call the Top 8 Competition which will come in at the end of the new season next year, which will be a pre-runner at the launch of the DStv Diski Challenge,” said PSL chairman Irvin Khoza.

The DStv Diski Challenge campaign will kick off on Saturday and will conclude on 4 July next year.

The season opener will see Chippa United host Black Leopards at the Giant Stadium followed by a heavyweight tussle between SuperSport United and Orlando Pirates.

“The DStv Diski Challenge will be broadcasted on the SuperSport PSL Channel. It will also be broadcasted on Variety 4 and the DStv community stations,” said Shiburi. | Xilombe Mathye
