ABANDE IS PLE U-19 ’S BEST, E2K RICHER
MBABANE - Consistency and discipline earn you accolades.
That is the narrative surrounding 17-year-old Abande Mabuza, who was honoured as the Player of the Season during the 2023/24 Premier League of Eswatini (PLE) Under-19 League awards presentation held at Sigwaca House. As he accepted his award, Mabuza expressed profound gratitude to his coach, Thokozani ‘Papic’ Ndzinisa and his teammates for their unwavering support.
“I scored six goals this season, and I aspire to continue developing and contributing to the national team in the future,” he remarked, showcasing his ambitions for the sport. Another outstanding talent, Thembinkosi Dlamini of Manzini Sea Birds, also shone brightly. He was acknowledged as the Top Scorer, netting an impressive 15 goals in 13 matches. The awards ceremony also recognised Sibusiso Fakudze, the best coach of the season from Royal Leopard. The best goalkeeper award went to Gcina Nxumalo.
In a captivating address, PLE Chairman Polycarp Dlamini emphasised that nurturing young talent is more important than merely accumulating trophies, urging teams to uphold integrity and avoid age cheating. He announced the formation of a dedicated committee, led by Bongani ‘Bhanyaza’ Mdluli, to enhance the Under-19 league’s development and ensure players can transition to the NFD and national team.
Eswatini Football Association (EFA) Chief Executive Officer Frederick Mngomezulu echoed this sentiment, highlighting the Under 19 league as foundational for the future of Eswatini football. He asserted the importance of well-coached and managed players for the national team’s success.
