Boksburg North football team excited about league

The Boksburg North SAPS football team is excited to continue competing in the Ekurhuleni North Football League for police officers this year.

Boksburg North’s next match will be an away game on January 10 against Etwatwa SAPS.

According to the team’s chairperson, Sergeant Bhuti Kunene, the team’s spirit is looking good.

“I believe we are excited and ready for the league,” said Kunene.

Boksburg North was previously in the East Rand Football SAPS League but decided not to be part of it following an incident at a game against Katlehong North SAPS in Katlehong on September 6.

Kunene explained one of the Katlehong North players received a red card in the first half but helped to score a goal early in the second half even though he was not supposed to be on the field.
Boksburg North forfeited the game, leaving the score at 1-0.

General secretary of the East Rand Football Association, SA Mbatha, said Boksburg North should have lodged an official complaint instead of walking away from the game. He highlighted the team has walked away from games in the past.
