Off to Phikwe: Both UB Giants and Titans qualified for the Extravaganza PIC: KENNEDY RAMOKONE
The tournament is balanced, as there are no outright favourites. On the men’s side, Rebels are the Trojan horse as the side knocked out Carats and beat Rail Giants during the Northern eliminations.
The side finished in third spot behind Police and BDF in the last tournament. Panthers are also another team that should not be undermined. BDF IX and Wells International have a slight advantage. On the women’s side, the title might go either way. The women’s defending champions, Titans go into the tournament without three key players who are currently engaged in the national team. Wangu Gondo, Onkokame Tlhakoyakgomo, and Maitumelo Serumula make the first line of defence for Titans. Wells are still finding their footing but BDF are a threat if they can play as a unit. UB Giants are the dark horse while Rail Giants are rebuilding and can cause an upset.
