EML prepares for the top eight tournament
The 24 teams are divided into four groups - Ekurhuleni West, Emakhishini, Daveyton and Vosloorus Central. Each group consists of six teams and each team has five games to play in the group.
After the Ekurhuleni Masters League (EML) came to an end on May 12, the 24 teams that played in the league are now busy with a new competition – the League Tournament.
Joshua Mokoena, Dream Team Masters executive member, said: “The League Tournament is under the EML and is held to select teams that are going to take part in the Ekurhuleni Masters League Top-Eight Tournament.”
