Air Niugini backs corporate snooker

PORT Moresby Billiards and Snooker Association president John Chan yesterday announced Air Niugini, through their cargo division, as the major sponsor of their corporate snooker competition.
Association treasurer Danny Earles received a cheque for K10,000 from Air Niugini Cargo general manager Gus Kraus.
“We appreciate of the support from Air Niugini Cargo, as it has been difficult to secure sponsorship in these difficult economic times,” Earles said.
Kraus said Air Niugini was happy to be able to contribute to the sport and he looked forward to seeing some exciting snooker played.
