It always took a special talent to be Township Rollers’ last line of defense. Several big names have come through in recent times.

Notable names who have worn the gloves for the popular Gaborone giants include Lesego 'Chokri' Moeng, Barolong 'Toldo' Lemmenyane, Anthony Matengu, Kabelo Dambe and the team’s legend and current head coach, Thabo ‘Mahala’ Motang.

Maphakela was thrown into the deep end in round three of this season’s Botswana Premier League (BPL) games.
