Promotion to the Premier League remains their ultimate goal, but the trainer knows it would not come easy. The Thamaga-based side opened their campaign with a spirited 1–1 draw against former champions, Jwaneng Young Stars, before claiming their first win in a 3–1 triumph over Tlokweng United.

However, their momentum stalled with back-to-back defeats amongst them a 1–0 loss to Notwane and a 3–1 beating at the hands of Dinare FC at the GU Stadium last weekend.
