Tawana chomping at the bit for the league

The Puk Tawana football club will kick off their SAB league campaign tonight with a home game against Tiki Taka FC

The Puk Tawana football club will kick off their SAB league campaign tonight with a home game against Tiki Taka FC.

Kick-off is at 18:00 at the Fanie du Toit sports grounds.

Coach Michael Seleka has no other goal in sight apart from winning the league.  With only three players left from the squad that knocked out the Mafikeng campus to play Varsity football two years ago some might argue that it might be a tough ask.

But Seleka has faith in his troops to get the job done. Patrick Lebitsa, the captain and one of the three players left from the Varsity Football campaign will be counted on to help carry his team over the finish line this year. The humble captain enjoyed a cracking Varsity Football campaign in 2015 and his experience is sure to be valuable to the current crop of players.

According to Seleka, younger players like Dumisani Sibiya, Katlego Mutlwane, Nathi Sete and Omphemetse Rathabe have a bright future and will also be looked to, to push the team forward.

Last year Tawana managed to end 10th out of all the teams from, Ventersdorp, Klerksdorp, Wolmaranstad and Potchefstroom.

Competing in other university competitions such as USSAS earlier this year will surely make Tawana ready and raring to go for the new season.
