Local pool player, Boineelo ‘Kizza’ Moleofi, has won the inaugural Eswatini Pool Festival after beating Ngqobile Dlamini of the host country 7-4, which saw her pocket $500 (approximately P6,500).

Speaking to SportMonitor after the weekend tournament, Moleofi said the competition was open to all players. She said her preparations ahead of the tournament included doing drills during the week and playing men’s tournaments over the weekends.
