Team Daniel, a soccer team from Daniel Rababalela village outside Giyani, donated 43 pairs of school shoes to the village school, Ndzhovela Primary School, on Monday, October 23, after winning the People’s Cup tournament in April.

Apart from the trophy, medals, and soccer kits, part of their cash prizemoney was to be used for school donations. Confidence Nokeri, popularly known as Tinashe, the co-coach of Team Daniel, said that they are very proud of winning the People’s Cup during the Easter holidays. “Today we are donating school shoes to Ndzhovela learners.

We are very excited to give back to the community as Team Daniel. Brightman Mathebula and I have worked hard to achieve this,” he said.

Dikeledi Rabothata, who represented the parents, said that they are thankful for what the team has done for them.

“It is very important to us that we get to see that you value education, may the Lord bless you. “To the parents, as long as sports do not interfere with your child’s schoolwork, let’s allow them to participate in sports. “Let’s support our home team because we see the fruit of their labour,” she said. Daisy Mangena, the principal, also thanked Team Daniel.

“It means a lot that you chose us. Our soccer field is overgrown with vegetation that needs to be cleaned, but you gave us access to your soccer field to play and it means a lot. It shows us how important this is, and how involved you are with this school. The best part is that all these soccer players started here at this school,” she said.
