2010 Season

The 2010 season was a development year, where we focused a lot on building our players as fully human. This means we focused a lot on values that where established by the club most of these are adapted from LEAP Science and Maths School, which deals a lot with values and principles. Our partnership with LEAP can without any doubt develop more. The next step in 2011 is to do more social development is a way for our players to give back more to their community. We will work more with Sonke Gender Justice Network, as a unit in the programmers they do to enrich the members of the community. Most of our players last year where part of Sonke Gender Justice Network workshops, relating life skills and football. We did a lot of player development in 2010.

We had a good pre-season preparation last year, we played big clubs in the Cape, clubs like Ajax CT, Engen Santos, Vasco Da Gama and Ikapa Sporting. During the season we won 3 major titles in Langa across all divisions, that was a good confidence booster for us. Our juniors in particular had the best season. our U11 ended second of the log, U13 third of the log, U15 also second of the log. U17 did not play the on the league, they played SAFA Cape Town competitions like the Coca Cola Cup and the Bay-hill tournament, together with the U19's that did well on the opening stages of the Bay-hill tournament winning with the aggregate of 7-1. In the other hand. I think it was not a great season for our seniors, they did not do well in the league after ended 10th out of 14 clubs, without making any excuses for them but the players in our senior team where very young to compete at that level.

During the year we got sponsorship of R8000 from Raymond Ackeman's foundation. The money helped us a lot to cover things that should have been an obstacle to our game and programme.
