Fruta Conquerors FC has collaborated with Prudential Industrial Technologies to upgrade the water supply at the Tucville ground as the club prepares to host its annual NAMILCO Football Festival from January 29 to February 19.
The company, located at Water and New Market streets, acceded to the club’s request and sourced the state-of-the-art water pressure system, which will be fitted and installed by Prudential.
Wayne Forde, CEO of Prudential Industrial Technology and manager of Oasis Water company, pledged that water will be supplied to teams in the tournament.
