A force to be reckoned with

Tsakane – African All Stars Football Club is the first soccer club in Ekurhuleni to compete in the South African Football Association (SAFA) Gauteng Second Division League.

The club was founded by Atwell Sijabu as a way to engage and groom young talents from Kwatsaduza.

The club grew from being a regional amateur youth club in the late 90s to being one of the best clubs in Ekurhuleni.

The African All Stars call the newly built Tsakane Stadium, which seats 25 000 spectators, their home ground.

Under Victor Ngoma’s leadership, the club won the 2014 ABC Motsepe League, Gauteng Divison.

Currently sitting in second position on the Gauteng SAFA Second Division League, the local club is gunning for honours and play-offs again this year.

The club’s mission is to be the first Ekurhuleni football club to be promoted to the Premier Soccer League (PSL).

“We believe that the club is nothing without our community’s support.

“They have supported the club right from the beginning and have shown their loyalty as it grows from strength to strength,” says PRO,

Xolani Nyuleka.
