That was not the end of the road for the school team they then preceded to the regional games in Allen Glen High where they played against two regions and obtained position 1.
The team managed to bring home bronze from the regional level after they won one game in the top 4 tournaments on Friday 7 June at Germiston.
Atamelang primary school sports committee member Bertha Moloko said she is satisfied and cannot ask for more because they represented the school well.
“We are currently other league games out of the school program to keep learners of the streets, we play at Moletsane every fortnight and we will play a tournament on the 29 and 30 June,” said Moloko.
SGB chairperson Jettita Moloi said they are proud of the schools’ achievements as they worked hard and represented the school well considering the fact that two years back they lost in the finals.
“We do their best to encourage learners to participate in sports and we also involve parents because we are aware that sports play a huge role in keeping children from the streets,” said Moloi.
