Reply: I am informed by the Mauritius Football Association (MFA) that the semi-final of the MFA Cup 2025 between Cercle de Joachim Curepipe Club Sportif and La Cure Waves S.C. was initially scheduled to be played on Sunday 22 June 2025 at Auguste Vollaire Stadium and the final on Saturday 28 June 2025 at the Côte d’Or National Sports Complex. I am further informed by the MFA that the final of the Republic Cup 2025 was scheduled on Wednesday 25 June 2025 at Côte d’Or National Sports Complex. The MFA has informed that its National Managing Committee met on 16 June 2025 and decided that a final such as the Republic Cup must be organised during a weekend instead of a weekday. Since the final of the MFA Cup was already scheduled for Saturday 28 June 2025 and that La Cure Waves S.C. could also be qualified for the MFA Cup Final, the MFA opted for the weekend 21 to 22 June 2025. I am informed that it was in this context that the National Managing Committee of the MFA decided to play the final of the Republic Cup on Sunday, 22 June 2025 at Auguste Vollaire Stadium and the semi-final of the MFA Cup on 25 June 2025 at Côte d’Or National Sports Complex. However, the MFA’s request to play the semi-final of the MFA Cup at Côte

149 d’Or National Sports Complex on Wednesday, 25 June 2025 was turned down by the Mauritius Multisports Infrastructure Ltd. as they had approved only for finals to be played. Accordingly, I am informed by the MFA that St. Francois Xavier stadium was the only alternative stadium with lighting that could host this semi-final on a weekday.
