In 2014, ahead of the 2014-15 Oman Professional League Cup, Oman Football Association announced that Mazda had agreed to sponsor the Professional League Cup and would be known as the Mazda Professional Cup for a period of four years. According to a four-year agreement reached by the two parties, Mazda became the title sponsor of the 14-team competition.[1][2]
