Last Saturday, Blue Angels thrashed Dinare 17-1 in a one-sided game at the National Diamond in Gaborone. The Thebephatshwa side is perched on top of the log with six games left before the league is concluded. It has only lost two games, against Paper Club and BDF IX. Blue Angels, an army side was founded in 2000 and it has made good progress in its short existence. Team manager Tlhagisang Masake said that their impressive run has been due to the fact that the players have matured over the years.
"Last year, we nearly finished third. The league did not end well because we protested that we were cheated. So we did not go to the play-offs. But now our players are understanding one another," he said. Having never won the league before has made Blue Angels players even hungrier. "They want to make a name for themselves. It would really be a huge achievement for everyone in the team. No one is being carried away. We respect all our opponents, and we want to win every game we play," Masake said.
