New soccer team

KCC has come up with a community soccer team for all age groups especially to those that are out of school. We have teams from under 11 to masters’ which are boys over 21 years of age. It has been three weeks with the new program and, so far, we have 40 boys from around the township.

We are so excited for this new activity, and it is one activity that will be monitored from the second stand that KCC bought recently. We have also extended the feeding program to the sports ground. The boys are given some food right after their training session. More appreciation to the staff who recently work an extra hour due to the soccer program. We also send our appreciation to the department of sports and arts & culture. After our request they have sponsored us two small goals. They are so useful until we get the big poles. The soccer training looks so much more professional and exciting, now.

Also, KCC staff has been very active this year. They are now playing soccer under the Gauteng women football club. They have been training and playing several matches. This month they played a top-four-tournament and won 5-0 against a team from Soweto in semi-finals. They won position number two in the final, got silver medals and a trophy. This is particularly important for KCC because they gain more knowledge in soccer which they are using for soccer practice at KCC hence this year the soccer department has improved. Big up and congratulations to you, KCC staff!

On the 11th of May KCC will be having a friendly game in Mabopane block B. We are also preparing a soccer tournament for June 16 and performances. The teams that will play are as follows: under 19 boys, under 21 boys, mothers’ division, and grannies’ division.
