U-19 Boys Bounce Back with 2-0 Win
A joyous day to be celebrated for the U-19 boys team because on April 19th they bounced back from their previous 3-1 loss with a convincing 2-0 win against their longstanding "arch rivals" Boksburg High. After a tough loss in their previous game, the team showed resilience and determination, securing a clean sheet and all three points with both offense and with defense being very stable and organized shutting down Boksburg from getting a single goal. A goal was made from the penalty spot by Kgosi making his goal tally five in just three games an amazing feat if you ask me and another goal by Thando a first for him this season. "Teamwork Makes the Dream Work" said Dalitso Ngoma the win was a testament to the team's unity and coordination, with players working together seamlessly. This win puts the team back on track after a tough loss in the previous game.

Let us hope that the team will look to keep their momentum going in their upcoming games, facing new challenges and opportunities to grow. Fans can expect exciting matches ahead! Be on watch!
U-17 Second Loss of the Season
The boys' U-17 team faced a tough 2-1 loss in their third game of the season, marking their second defeat in a row. Despite a strong start with the team having high hopes to come back from their upsetting previous game, the team couldn't capitalize on their chances, ultimately falling short. According to one of the team's center-backs Kwandile Thabethe, they should have won, but individual mistakes and a lack of clinical finishing cost them. "Boksburg was a game we should have won, but not being clinical and taking our chances cost us the game," the player said. Those little individual mistakes led to us losing 2-1, and we've got to learn from them as these mistakes will critically ruin the team in future games. The similarities between the two losses are somewhat shocking, with the team struggling to convert chances and making crucial mistakes but in this game they were more aware of their positions and had defended way much better they had against Oosrand more chances were created but just couldn't properly be finish. The players and coaches will need to work on addressing these issues to improve their performance. "We've got to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and get back to work," the captain of the team added. As we hope to see if the team can work on refining their skills and achieving success in the league to break this deadlock of losses. With determination and hard work, they should aim to overcome their challenges and make a strong comeback. The team's spirit and commitment will be crucial in navigating the season's ups and downs.
