“We accumulated 32 points and walked away with a new jersey, training kit, balls and medals and a trophy. It was a moment to cherish when we received our trophy at the Germiston stadium,” said Ncube.
“Our U13 team finished sixth with 42 points. This year we are going to promote our U11 team to play in the U13 division.
“The idea is to have the U11, U13, and U15 teams and the seniors all competing in the GLFA leagues. The seniors need more attention this year and need new kit and transport. They also need R2 000 to affiliate to the league.
“Many thanks to Silvasons Hardware for their support throughout last year. They have provided us with transport.”
