LEAGUE FIXTURES AND SCORES

DURBAN ACADEMY  4      HUNT ROAD SEC   0

The Sanlam Kay Motsepe Cup At Tills Crescent Stadium

The Sanlam Kay Motsepe cup is a school tournament  co funded by Sanlam, Ubuntu Botho Community Development Trust and the Motsepe Family Foundation. Scholars who want to participate
must be in possession of a green RSA identity document and an original birth certificate.
I think the organisers in every district and region should meet before the tournament starts because according to the information on internet, original birth certificates are allowed but the organisers do not accept them therefore some learners from other districts might be disadvantaged due to lack of communication. My player was suspended and we lost our points because he didn't have an RSA identity document maybe the information about the tournament on internet need to be corrected.

In Durban central seven schools participated.

MARITZBURGH COLLEGE VS HUNT ROAD

Last Friday on 16 May 2014, my open team traveled to Pietermaritzburg in KwaZulu- Natal. We left the school early as we wanted to spend some time in the Capital city of the province of KwaZul -Natal which was founded in 1838,however our reason for travelling was to play our league match against Maritzburg College.

 Some under 17 players didn't go with the team,such as the striker Lwazi Dlamini who had an injury.They borrowed players from the first team and they also introduced new players but the team was not united and the captain Mxolisi was really frustrated. They lost the match with 2-0,

The First team played very well, it was really awesome to watch, we wished it could never end and both teams were disciplined so that meant that the match wouldn't be physical at all. My boys played very well but they just could't score and so the final score was 1-0, Maritzburg college walked away with three points.I still believe my team is getting better, they have improved their performance and for a team that does not have a coach I think they are doing very well. The most challenging thing is the soccer field, the local teams train and play on the municipality grounds at Essenwood but we won't give up because every child has a right to play and they should not be denied that right.

There were changes in the fixture therefore we will play against Durban Academy next Wednesday on 21 May 2014, other players will compete in the Motsepe Cup on Thursday 22 May, Don't worry guys we are getting there.
