'Mani Bikram Shah Youth Player Award' to best youth player

Kathmandu–All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) is to present 'Mani Bikram Shah Youth Player Award' to the best player of ongoing Martyr's Memorial 'A' Division League Football. 


Issuing a press release on Thursday, ANFA said that the award would be presented in memory of former Captain of National Team, Shah. The award carries a purse of Rs 100,000.
