The second edition of the Clash of Legends featuring former Botswana players against their South African counterparts on June 29, will see three athletes, Oscar Ncenga, Onkabetse Nkobolo and Seboloko 'Naughty' Khutsafalo benefit from the game's proceeds.

Last year, three footballers, Malepa Bolelang, Mosimanegape 'Twizer' Ramohibidu and Moemedi 'Jomo' Moatlhaping each received around P30,000 after the inaugural edition raised more than P90,000 for the beneficiaries. At least 17,000 fans turned up for the match played at the National Stadium during the off-season.

Bolelang suffered a freak accident which forced the amputation of his right leg, while Ramohibidu was left wheelchair bound due to a car crash, while Moatlhaping was forced to retire due to illness. This year's beneficiaries, Ncenga, Nkobolo and Khutsafalo are now wheelchair bound after suffering misfortunes.
