MESSAGE FROM DR DANNY JORDAAN

This year might have been ravaged by the Covid-19 pandemic but the ABC Motsepe League National Play-Offs are set to give football fans something special to cheer about. The decision taken by the SAFA NEC to declare all ABC Motsepe Provincial Leagues as final and for all teams occupying number one spots to advance to the play-offs, was made in the best interest of football, its stakeholders and the clubs involved. The SAFA NEC took into consideration the fact that the two promoted teams need to prepare for life in the newly-branded GladAfrica Championship (National First Division) and this entails beefing up their squads and registration of those players. This process will also allow promoted sides enough time to get ready.

The Motsepe Foundation has funded the ABC Motsepe League (SAFA Second Division) since 2014 and the Sanlam Kay Motsepe Schools Cup since 2004. Recently, the Foundation granted R117 million to the Department of Basic Education to strengthen school sporting and cultural competitions and SAFA is playing an integral role in launching a nationwide schools programme that will ensure that football is played in at least 24,000 schools.

It is a well-known fact that the teams promoted from the ABC Motsepe League have stood their own in the NFD and we want that trend to continue (see below). With the mouth- watering prize money on offer and the incentive of promotion, this year’s play-offs will not be short of the competitive edge that has always characterised previous editions. To the Motsepe Foundation, Dr Patrice Motsepe and Dr Precious Moloi-Motsepe, your presence and investment in football is valuable and greatly appreciated by the Association. We look forward to continuing our partnership that is changing the lives of players by enabling them to join the professional ranks. With the lockdown regulations having moved to Level 1, scouts will be coming in big numbers to search for talent at this annual football fiesta. All roads lead to the Vaal University of Technology this week and I would like to wish all participating teams the best of luck.

SAFA Vice President & Chairman: Competitions Committee

MESSAGE FROM MR GLADWYN WHITE

After the unprecedented global halt of sporting activities for the past six months due to Covid-19 pandemic, it is an absolute pleasure to welcome the return of football at SAFA national level. This 7th edition of the ABC Motsepe League National Play-Offs is taking place here in the Vaal. It has been a wonderful journey over the last seven seasons ever since the partnership between SAFA and the Motsepe Foundation was established in March 2014. We express our sincerest gratitude to the Motsepe Foundation for its continued support of ensuring that SAFA executes its mandate of advancing the agenda of football development across the length and breadth of the Republic of South Africa. Please join me in going down memory lane in these pages, reminding ourselves of past glories and past finalists. We congratulate the nine champion clubs flocking together at Vanderbijlpark representing their respective Provinces to contest the most lucrative prize money competition in amateur football in the whole of Africa. The ABC Motsepe League as the highest league in our semi-professional ranks that has proven to be extremely competitive in its own right, affording each provincial champion club the opportunity to contest for the two vacant positions left by the two relegated clubs from the GladAfrica Championship (NFD).
