HIGHLANDERS have postponed their 2013 Player of the Year awards ceremony indefinitely.
Announcing the postponement of the awards ceremony last night, Highlanders' chairman Peter Dube said the move came after "purely budgetary considerations."
"After making all considerations we have decided that it is an expense carrying function which is a disadvantage to the club. As club custodians, we thought maybe it is better not to eat so much into the budget just to stage a glamorous event.
"The money for the ceremony can help us at this stage because there are lots of expenses during off-season and the scarce resources can come in handy when we prepare for the start of the season," said Dube.
Highlanders had a fruitful 2013 season that saw the team winning their first major cup in seven years. Bosso players went on to dominate the Mbada Diamonds Cup individual awards ceremony adding another feather to their prestigious tournament glory.
