R30 000 at stake on Saturday
BOPHELONG.- The Duku Duku Super16 Winter Soccer Tournament will conclude this coming weekend.
The 4th annual Kasi football tournament began over the long weekend earlier this month with knockout stages and will conclude on Saturday. There will be action galore with the big guns in kasi football and the winner will smile all the way to the bank with a R30 000 cheque.
The tournament organisers promise a humdinger come Saturday. The finals will take place at France's dusty soccer ground in Ext 15, Movhango. The day's programme will start at 9:00 with the first semi-final and 12:00 with the second semi-final.
There will be curtain raisers for the final as local soccer legends will face each other to entertain the crowd.
Speaking to Sedibeng Ster Sport, Molife 'Duku Duku' Mahlangu said this year's tournament saw some exciting new talent all over Sedibeng.
He told Sedibeng Ster Sport that there will be a hive of activities on the day of the final, with local soccer fans expected to come in big numbers to watch the much-anticipated match.
Mahlangu said Bophelong is expected to come to a standstill.
'I can't wait, and believe the soccer fans also can't wait for Saturday. We witnessed a high standard of football since the start of the tournament. I do not doubt that we will be spoiled with exciting football. We thank the Bophelong and Movhango communities for their support since the tournament started. I do not doubt that they enjoyed the talent that was displayed. We also thank every supporter, especially our stakeholders. Duku Duku Tournament is a platform to showcase local talent. We always invite scouts,' said Mahlangu.
