Kwa-Thema – Three local soccer players are on their way to professional levels of play.
Moshe Kgoloko, Lwandle Vilakazi and Thabiso Khumalo have been selected to represent the province after they displayed exceptional talent in the open trials held in Reiger Park last Saturday.
The players are all members of Ace Auto Ayoba. The aspiring soccer stars stood head and shoulders above hundreds of other boys from the Ekurhuleni Regional League.
“I feel quite nervous but also glad they chose me,” said Lwandle.

The left winger, who has been playing soccer since 2021, said his long-term goal is to play in the PSL or Premier League. Moshe shared the same sentiments.
“I play every position except goalkeeper. I know I will make the most of this opportunity,” he said.
Thabiso said he has been playing soccer for as long as he can remember.
“I feel motivated to keep doing my best now that we play for the province. I hope to represent my country one day and make all the people who believed in me proud,” he added.
