Last week marked a significant milestone as IZIBET proudly announced a new 3-year sponsorship agreement with the Malta Football Association (MFA). This groundbreaking collaboration designates IZIBET as the title sponsor for the esteemed FA Trophy, the second-largest event in domestic football.
FA Trophy: A Legacy Unveiled
The FA Trophy, a storied competition dating back to its inception in the 1934-35 season, is set to embark on its 82nd season in 2021/2022. This year’s competition boasts the participation of 46 teams, including 8 teams from Gozo, the 4 National Amateur Cup semi-finalists, and all the clubs competing in the Premier League and the Challenge League.
Welcoming IZIBET to the MFA Sponsorship Family
In a press conference dedicated to unveiling the sponsorship, Mr. Bjorn Vassallo, President of the MFA, warmly welcomed IZIBET to the prestigious family of MFA sponsors. He expressed optimism about the positive outcomes that the partnership could bring in the years to come.
IZIBET’s Journey from Launch to Title Sponsorship

Both the MFA and IZIBET envision a range of benefits stemming from this sponsorship. Of paramount importance is the enhancement of the competition, aiming to create a captivating and competitive environment. Additionally, the winning club will gain access to UEFA club competitions.
