Zimbabwe’s top flight league has unveiled a new Castle Lager Premier Soccer League trophy, closing the chapter on a prize that had been in use for many years.
The fresh design was presented to the newly crowned champions, Scotland FC, and many fans see it as a well-timed upgrade for a league that has grown in profile.
Scotland beat TelOne 2-1 at Ascot Stadium in Gweru to clinch the trophy in their first season in the top division.
The trophy has a modern, polished look that stands out on the pitch. Its base rises into a tall silver stem with fine etched patterns that give it texture and depth.
At the top sits a large football made of reflective metal, catching the colours of the stadium and the crowd around it.
A crown rests on the ball, adding a regal touch that signals the importance of winning the league.
The entire piece has clean lines and a bright shine that makes it feel more in line with major football trophies around the world.
For years, clubs and supporters had been calling for a trophy that matched the stature of the competition.
This new version delivers a sense of pride and presence during the title handover.
It photographs well, looks strong under stadium lights, and carries the kind of weight a champion’s reward should have.
For Scotland FC, lifting it for the first time adds another layer of history to their season.
For the league, it marks a fresh start and a step toward raising the overall presentation of local football.
