Ahead of their first season in the fourth tier UAE Third Division League, they reached a sponsorship agreement with Nando's, a South African multinational fast casual chain, who would provide weekly pre-match meals to the team, amounting to a total of 72 meals each week, while also alloing the young African players on the team complementary dining at all Nando's restaurants.
