Today we were on Grand Parade, down town, for our weekly soccer mini-tournament with some kids from Bo Kaap. Kids and young adults came from all over the town to play with us there, like every sunday afternoon. Today we announces The player of the month; one among the kids and one among the young adults. They were chosen because they were the most diciplined ones, and because they showed alot of teamspirit! We have had an amazing day today!
