Good sport

Last year's Matjies vs Maatjies soccer match was a blisteringly good game - competitive, spirited, and with great audience participation in the form of opinionated mothers and streakers.

Matjies soccer 2010 is going to be even better, now that we're all pro spectators and vuvu-players. If you'd like to be on the team, email the good Captain Adam Mokoena (adcoops1980@gmail.com)

We also played netball in 2009 - it was a tough match, infinitely more hard-core than the soccer taking place on the neighbouring field. There was bleeding, cheating and cussing. Just like we remember it from Primary School. We need a captain for 2010 - so ladies, if you're a born leader, fleet-of-foot, and know your Goal Attacks from your Goal Shooters, step right up!
