MORWA: Celebrating the Golden Jubilee is a milestone not only for an individual sportsperson but also for a sporting club. Morwa Rising Stars football club, which competes in the Kgatleng Regional Football, is celebrating its fiftieth anniversary. To add cherry on top, the team has secured a partnership with Letsema Insurance Brokers, bringing hope to its supporters. Club manager, Shima ‘True’ Makgala, told MmegiSport that he has been managing the club since the 1990s to date, following a short career at Gaborone United (GU).
