Both the Women league and the U20 league will be aired live by giant Television company Azam TV.

The deal was signed in a short ceremony held at the Azam media head office at TAZARA, Dar es Salaam.

Tanzania Football Federation president Jamal Malinzi representing the Federation and Rhys Torrington, Azam Media General Manager were present when the deal was signed yesterday.

Torrington said the five year deal will help improve the standards of Football in the country while the Football boss Malinzi said the league will be similar to the top tier and that the teams participating in the top tier next season will have an U20 team. He said the youth teams will play before the senior teams acting as a curtain raiser.

With that development, each team will be required to ferry along with them their youth team when honoring matches.

Also present was TWFA president Amina Karuma.

Azam TV also shows live the Ugandan and Rwandan top tier leagues as well as the Tanzania Federations cup that ended in favor of Yanga.
