Primrose Sports Club hosted Primrose Corner Football Club and Knights Tavern Football Club\u2019s junior fixture on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was a friendly game, we host these games regularly and have done so for more than five years now,\u201d said one of the organisers, Israel Ndlovu.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Ndlovu, who is also a player, said they are currently playing for the love of the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is more of a social club, we are not registered with any league although we are looking at joining one next year because we really love this sport and would like to take it further than friendly games,\u201d he said.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cWe are also using this to keep fit and healthy, and what better way to do it than doing it while playing the game we all love.\u201d<\/p>\n

The game was well played with the Corner boys trying their best to keep up with Knights.<\/p>\n

Knights was in a robust attack mode and on many occasions managed to dribble past their opponent\u2019s defence line.<\/p>\n

This was well rewarded with a 5-2 win by Knights.<\/p>\n

Ndlovu also told the GCN that the Knights\u2019 senior team played against the Primrose SAPS\u2019 team earlier that day.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur junior teams start from 18 years to 34, while the seniors are from 35 to 40 years,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe seniors took on the SAPS and it ended in a 0-0 draw, it was a well-played game.<\/p>\n

\u201cKnights and Corners are both from the Makause informal settlement which is where our practices and some of our games are held.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have 15 teams and are hoping to grow even more.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also do have fixtures held at Hattingh Park.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not sure when our next fixture will be but while we are sorting that out we will be hard in at practice.\u201d<\/p>\n
