Bakewell has renewed their alliance with Topp XX and Buxton Stars football clubs ahead of the 19th  annual Kashif and Shanghai football tournament which will kick start this Sunday in Linden.

Bakewell’s Manager Rajin Ganga hands over the sponsorship cheque to Topp XX’s Secretary Beverly McDonald.

The company yesterday presented both teams with a quantity of uniforms, balls and an undisclosed sum of cash at a simple ceremony at their head office in Georgetown.
This year’s presentation marks nine years since Bakewell has been sponsoring the Linden team while this is the second year in succession that they are taking the East Coast team under their banner.

However, Topp XX has been the most successful between the two since they have won the tournament five times and have featured in more finals than any other team that ever took part in the yearend event.

Buxton Stars are playing in their second Kashif and Shanghai tournament and have never made it past the first round.
