FORMER Orlando Pirates player Patrick Thwala says sports unite people.

Patrick was among the former PSL players, including the likes of ex-Jomo Cosmos midfielder Teboho Mokoena and former Amazulu player Bongani Mbhele, who helped their team Palm Ridge Masters win the Ekurhuleni Masters Super Cup (EMLSC).

They beat Team SA Masters from Daveyton 3-2 in the match played at SA Army Gymnasium Stadium in Heidelberg on Sunday, 25 August.

“Playing in the masters league helps most of us, as former PSL stars, to reunite and socialize. We had our fair share playing in the elite league. However, we are still involved in the game of billions,” said Patrick.
Patrick said that he may have retired from playing in the professional league, but he can still run and showcase his social skills.

“Soccer is in our blood. We may not be able to run like before, but hey, there’s still a lot of steam and energy in my body. I can still give opponents a run for their money,” he said.

Patrick was a dazzling, nippy, and quick left-winger who also had illustrious career playing for Santos and Mamelodi Sundowns.

He said that despite their professional soccer careers ending a few years ago, he and other former PSL players still keep fit and play in the masters league. His team won the Ekurhuleni Super League on Sunday.

The games were played under the banner of the Ekurhuleni Masters League and featured teams such as Inhliziyo FC, SA Army, Mfundo Park, Dawn Park United, Palm Ridge FC, and Team SA.

The league allows players who are over 35 years old to continue playing soccer, including former professional players and those who didn’t make it to the elite league.

The coach of Palm Ridge Masters, Isaac Mapalala, said he’s happy with his team winning the EMLSC.

“In three years, we have collected three cups as masters. We have won the league for two seasons, and now a Super Cup. We have been in the Ekurhuleni Masters League for three years, and we have made a good impact. At our disposal, we have good players, some of whom have played soccer at a professional level, and that makes us a good team,” Isaac said.

The coach of Team SA, Sello Skabate, said he was happy with his team’s performance despite losing to their opponent. He urged players who are over 35 years old to continue playing soccer and forming master teams in their areas.

“Playing in the masters indicates that a person never gets old, as long as a player is capable of playing even after the age of 35 years. Football will never die unless we decide to kill it because the young ones are looking up to us. So, we need to show them that through sports, everyone can still stay fit and be able to stay healthy,” Sello said.
He said they had good players such as Siyabonga Nomvethe, the late John “Shoes” Moshoeu, and the legendary Cameroon striker Roger Milla, who scored four goals at the 1990 Fifa World Cup aged 38.

“Milla helped Cameroon become the first African team to reach the World Cup quarterfinals. Four years later, at the age of 42, Milla broke his record as the oldest goal scorer in the World Cup by scoring against Russia in the 1994 Fifa World Cup,” said Sello.

The chairman of the Ekurhuleni Masters League, Bonginkosi Sityebi, said the league is made up of Stream A, which has 13 teams who are the main league, while Stream B is the second division and has 13 teams.

“Palm Ridge Masters and Team SA won their league in Stream A and B, respectively, and they qualified to play in the Super Cup. The runner-up teams of divisions A and B, Mfundo Park Masters and Dawn Park United, competed in the third and fourth positions, which was won by United.”

He said the league has been operating for over a decade, and it has been improving. Sityebi said that the league promotes sociality and strong bonds among veteran players.

“Currently, we are going into the off-season, and the league is going to resume on 13 October. When that happens, we would love to have more veteran teams in the league, so we are encouraging more veteran teams to come and join the club. Only players who are 35 years old and above can play in the league,” said Sityebi.

ZAHARA’S friend Csana is keeping the late singer’s legacy alive.

Csana recorded a song in 2023 before Zahara died, and she’s finally releasing the song titled Emva Kwendlu on Friday, 30 August.

The songstress, whose real name is Nonguquko Mlaza, spoke to Daily Sun about her song and relationship with Zahara.

 

 

 

 

“Zahara and I had a personal relationship. We met at a wedding in 2013. We were both booked there, and we hit it off. By that time, I was still in the Eastern Cape. When I got to Joburg in 2015, we met again, and she invited me to her house. We started getting along there. She asked about my journey in music and the difficulties I faced. We were friends until she passed in December,” she said,

Csana, who hails from Port St Johns in the Eastern Cape, said the song will educate people about the IsiXhosa culture and language.

Csana said Emva Kwendlu is about conversations she used to have with Zahara.

“Emva Kwendlu was recorded last year. However, we had been talking about doing it for a while. She came into the studio I usually recorded in, and we did the song. We are rural girls, as much as we’re in Joburg, but sometimes we would have conversations about going back home. The song is about girls sitting behind the house and looking at things happening around the village. Girls in the village do that a lot.

“We are taking people back to the rural areas. People must expect to feel nostalgia when listening to the song. They will also learn about our culture and the language,” she said.

The single is part of an album that Csana is working on.

The songstress said she misses Zahara.

The Loliwe hitmaker died on 11 December 2023 after struggling with liver complications.

“There are so many things I miss about her. She loved people and had a good heart. She didn’t mind giving you something she loved if you needed it. I’ll always remember her for her ubuntu. She was giving, and I miss her jokes and playfulness. Sometimes, we’d forget we were older because we would play so much,” Csana said.

The 65-year-old, whose real name is Solomon Molokoane from Soshanguve, north of Tshwane, went to the neighbouring country to perform but was rushed to hospital.

He’s known for his hits like Robala ka Kgotso, Ke Latlhile Bokinza, and Thaba ya Sione.

Solly has also made headlines for venturing into amapiano and performing at baby showers.

 

 

 

 

 

His team released a statement regarding his condition.

“Solly Moholo headed to Botswana to pre-launch his new upcoming album titled Wubani O zo Pepeza.

“Ntate Solly Moholo performed excellently at all his gigs in Botswana and was well-received by the people of Botswana,” the statement read.

They said things took a turn after his performance.

“Unfortunately, upon his return to his residence in Botswana, Ntate Moholo fell ill and had to be rushed to hospital,” the team said.

They said that they were all still there to give him support.

“As we speak, his management team is still in Botswana till Solly makes a full recovery in hospital. He’s much better than he was.”

They asked Mzansi for support and prayer.

“During this time, the family would like to humbly request that you keep Ntate Solly Moholo in your prayers as he makes full recovery. We’ll keep you updated regarding any developments.”

Congratulations are in order for Thobani Nzuza, the talented South African actor known for his compelling performances in popular television series such as eHostela, Uzalo, and DiepCity. This dynamic artist has recently announced the release of his second theatre play, an exciting milestone in his burgeoning career.

In a heartfelt message on Instagram, Nzuza revealed that he had decided to publish this new play, a work he crafted during his time at varsity in 2014. The decision was inspired by an email from Professor Ravengai at Wits University earlier this year. In the message, Professor Ravengai expressed interest in the play, noting that it had been the subject of a directing project by two fourth-year students. The professor’s enthusiasm for Nzuza’s work highlighted its potential educational value, particularly for first-year students studying non-realist and presentational theatre.

 

 

 

 

Born on May 4, 1993, Thobani Nzuza has established himself as a versatile figure in the arts, serving as an actor, director, playwright, vocalist, and dancer. His journey in the world of performance arts began in 2010 when he enrolled in the Community Arts Center. Under the mentorship of renowned artist Buhle ‘Bo’ Mlazi, Nzuza honed his craft and laid the foundation for his future endeavors.

His debut came in 2014 with the stage play Silencing the Hurricanes, produced by Themi Venturas, which was showcased in Bangkok. The success of this initial venture propelled him to write and direct Shintsha Guluva for the Isigcawu Festival, receiving critical acclaim and earning him the Best Director award.

Nzuza’s contributions to theatre did not go unnoticed, as he continued to thrive in both acting and directing roles. In 2015, he starred in Secret Valley of the Great Kings, for which he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the Durban Mercury Theatre Awards. His collaborative effort with Kagiso Tsimakwane in 2015 produced the successful one-man show Boy Ntulikazi, which garnered several awards, including the Best Actor Award at the 2015 Isigcawu Festival.

His accolades further expanded in 2017 when he received the Best Actor Award at the Baxter Zabalaza Theatre Festival, where Boy Ntulikazi also clinched the Best Production Award, along with the Best Community Production Award at the South African Theatre Magazine Awards.

Beyond South Africa, Nzuza represented the Shakespeare festival in Germany in 2016 with Much Ado About Nothing, directed by Debbie Lutge. His television career took off with notable roles, including Mdeni in Mzansi Magic’s eHostela in 2018, followed by impactful performances in the supernatural telenovela Isipho and the widely watched soapie Uzalo. Most recently, in 2021, he captivated audiences with his portrayal of Simangaliso Xaba in DiepCity.
