Zothwane, who played eight times for the senior national team, believes Bafana will get the job done at home. “This is Coach Papi …

New signing Delano Abrahams has fitted in like a glove to hand at Magesi Football Club.

It speaks to a club that was not only competing last season but also keeping an eye on talent in the Motsepe …

One of Magesi FC’s best traits is teamwork; its ability to fight for each other on and off the pitch. Whether in the lead or trailing, the team fights its cause as a unit.

A player who epitomises these specific quality is none other defender, Lehlogonolo Mokone. The lad from Seleteng in Ga-Mphahlele, Limpopo, has shown a tremendous fighting spirit and has featured in all four of our Betway Premiership games …

On 26 September 2024, Makhubu scored our first ever goal in the Betway Premiership as we beat Golden Arrows 1-0 in a match played in KwaZulu-Natal. And then on 28 September 2024, he was at it again when he was named Man of the Match …
