“We extend our gratitude to all community members who attended and supported our youth football event, showcasing the talents of our young players,” said PLPDL’s Mpe.
“We call upon local sports authorities and the South African Football Association (SAFA) to recognize and support grassroots football in communities like Orange Farm. Establishing a SAFA status for our Community Football League would bring numerous benefits, including MySafa cards and other opportunities, ensuring our teams can compete without the challenges of long-distance travel,” he added.
