TALENTED footballers from the Durban Lyons Football Club, based in the Bluff, require sponsorships or donations to get to Richards Bay for a tournament which will provide players with an opportunity to be selected to play against Maritzburg and at the Thames Football Club Tournament in Johannesburg.

Hoping to catch the eye of scouts at the tournament, which will be held on Saturday, July 30, Durban Lyons FC chairperson, Lewschir Rich Lewis, said 60 children will be taken to the tournament.
